Thanks Eng. @Nashon_Tambo
I listen through the entire conversation.
That was an excellent representation of the Engineers.
Well articulated! 👌
I recently gave a talk about "Designing for Safety: Embedding Accountability and Quality Throughout the Building Lifecycle" at the Big 5 Construct. Today morning we had a similar conversation on NTV's "Fixing the Nation".

PUBLIC SAFETY IS NON-NEGOTIABLE: Following the collapse of a proposed multi-storey building in Eastleigh on 23 October 2026, The Board has launched formal investigations to establish the contributing factors and determine any professional accountability.

SO WHAT would have been the benefit if the building had occupation certificate? Does obtaining an occupation certificate prevents a defectively constructed building from collapsing?
What the Governor is conveniently and deliberately not saying is that 4 additional floors were allegedly added to this building. Who approved it at the county? Did the county carry out its mandated regular inspection of the building during construction and what were the findings? Show us the records.
Let him address substantive issue…. #Eastleigh

Developers, regulators & engineers must uphold standards. Citizens must demand accountability and report unsafe buildings and drainage.
Investigate the ground. Manage the water. Enforce the standards. Protect lives.
#EngineersMatter #BuildingSafety #FloodPrevention
Eng. Job Robert Otieno: Building collapses in Kenya are often caused by poor workmanship, inadequate ground investigations, cutting corners, and the use of substandard construction materials.

Charles Hinga: You don’t build houses in one year; you take two to three years to complete a scheme. We were collecting about 6.5 billion in 12 months; that is 84 billion a year. If you have signed contracts of over 800 billion, you need additional resources. The additional resources come from finishing the units, selling them, and recycling the money. You cannot recycle the money until you finish #CitizenMondayReport
