The National Environment Management Authority (NEMA) on Monday demolished a Java House outlet and Shell petrol station in Nairobi’s Kileleshwa estate.
According to the environment body, the two buildings had been built on riparian land and encroached on a road reserve.

The demolition caught employees of the two establishments (Java and Shell) unawares and they salvaged the little they could before the buildings were crushed.After finishing with the JAVA and Shell in Kileleshwa, NEMA should then go for this building on Langata Rd @AgolaLinda @arabella_gracey @O_NyangaiM https://t.co/uKhtGU3wqT— JOloo (@oloojl) August 6, 2018
A statement seen by Ureport on Tuesday indicated that NEMA would continue with the demolition exercise in its bid to ensure a clean environment for all.
