CORRUPTION is the keyword. This goes beyond even the collapsing. Those were just extremely unlucky. Building approval department in counties is totally corrupt. Many material suppliers are shrewd business people just after sales. Same to contractors. Some professionals are stamping buddies or even in projects just for business. Some clients have no regard for any kind of professional and moral counsel. Its a mess.

I was impressed by the story of this 25 year old gentleman who built a mabati house on tight budget and seems to serve him well. Meet Wilson Ngugi, and electrical Engineer by profession from NYS. He wanted a simple and independent life and chose to downgrade. That is where his inspiration of a tiny home came about. The space was a tight one as 24sqm was availed to him out of 55sqm. He designed the house in bits; started with a layout and kept expanding it thereby realizing the need for different spaces as he lived in it. Budgeted for 500k but ended up spending 700k - 800k. About 85% of the materials came from friends and family. The structure has the following: โ A concrete foundation. โ Walls made of mabati along with insulation mostly of used clothes and plywood to the inside. (Donation from family and friends) โ Wooden electric poles act as columns. โ Wooden floor. โ A composting toilet that collects manure for his garden. He is in the process of installing solar and all waste water from the house is recycled to used in his garden where he has grown his own food (Vegetable). He also has an integrated art studio where he recycles and repurposes plastic waste into fine ornaments. Some colleagues discouraged him while he was starting but remain focused as he knew what he wanted. The guy is so simple that has even used rice sacks as curtains and has a personalized rooftop deck to enjoy the views. A few improvemnts needed on functionality but he has a very good philosophy of living. I hope he consider architecture studies. He will be the best. Link to full video :

The 9 storey building that had undergone a partial collapse last week in Mombasa is now being demolished today. They plan to do it through controlled explosions and evacuation has been done over a 1.2km radius for 8 hours. It appears the cause was adding extra floors thus additional weight than the designed foundation could bear. There were professionals and I would like to know if they approved those additions or they were actively involved in supervision. This is about ksh 100M in the drains.

Politicians can never do this. That is why you find such experiences in completely enclosed areas like Tatu City where there is no Govt. bureaucracy For instance in Nairobi CBD, cabros must be changed after every election and focus is only on walkways.
