When buildings fall, the government makes a big deal about taking action against phony contractors but then goes silent and waits for the next calamity. Several structures being built in the nation's capital openly disregard building codes right in front of government representatives. Due to the demand for homes and the lower rates being paid, many residents also take a risk by relocating into high-rise flats that are still under construction. Could there be further recognised causes for Nairobi's subpar structures that could be investigated to avert disasters?
