City Hall Officials Who Dumped Waste at Stima Plaza Arrested
Interior Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen on Thursday revealed that the Nairobi County Government staff who dumped waste at Stima Plaza have been arrested.
Describing the incident as indescipable, CS Murkomen, who spoke at a press conference in Nairobi criticized City Hall officers and further told the press that some of the county government lorries that were blocking Stima Plaza entrance have also been detained.
“The county Government of Nairobi has the responsibility of keeping everyone in Nairobi Safe. They also have a responsibility of public health. That was totally uncouth. At the very highest level, there was a report that was made by KPLC. That report led to the arrest of officers from Nairobi for questioning. Some of the lorries have also been detained,” he said.
However, he pointed out that the authorities had not disclosed this information of arrests to the public.
Kenya Power disconnected electricity to several Nairobi County offices on 24th February 2025 over an unpaid bill of Sh3 billion.
In retaliation, the county government took drastic measures on Monday, including dumping garbage outside KPLC headquarters, blocking sewer lines, and cutting off water supply to its buildings.
