Property worth millions of shillings was destroyed yesterday after Kenya Railways destroyed residences in Nakuru. Hundreds of families in Gilgil town, Mbaruk and Mashini trading centres spent the night in the cold after earth movers knocked down their houses between 1am and 6am. It was raining at the time.
At Mbaruk, Kenya Railways flattened more than 30 homes and business premises. Not even a local institution, Blescohouse Premier School, was spared. The school's managers sent a message to parents informing them that the 350 pupils enrolled at the institution would be moved to a sister school in the town.
