The National Construction Authority (NCA) has revealed new details regarding the building collapse on Kirinyaga Road, Nairobi, which occurred early Wednesday morning. The incident involved a proposed 10-floor commercial development, and the collapse happened during foundation works due to a failed retaining wall.

• Six people sustained injuries in the collapse, with no fatalities reported.
• The project was officially registered with the government and had all required professionals, including a contractor, architect, and quantity surveyor.
• Investigations are underway, and the incident follows a surge in building collapses across Kenya, leading to the enforcement of the National Building Code 2024 and increased penalties for non-compliance.
