How is it that a mama mboga cannot put up a small kiosk outside an estate in Nairobi without Kanjo appearing almost immediately to harass her, demand permits or chase her away, yet a massive building can rise floor after floor without the same county machinery stopping it? Now Governor Johnson Sakaja is trying to distance himself from the Eastleigh building collapse by pointing fingers at developers, engineers, missing construction approvals and weak enforcement laws, as though he is not the man in charge of Nairobi County. If Kanjo officers can spot a woman selling tomatoes outside an estate gate, how does City Hall fail to stop a multistorey building whose construction plans it claims were never approved, and where exactly were the county enforcement officers as the structure continued rising? Sakaja must take full political and administrative responsibility for the failures under his watch and stop behaving like an innocent spectator in a county government that he was elected to lead.
