    26 professional and residents’ associations in Nairobi County have expressed objection to a proposal by Nairobi Governor Johnson Sakaja to allow construction of high-rise buildings in different parts of the city. The associations have threatened to seek legal redress if the county fails to suspend the plan to allow for the construction of high-rise buildings in areas like Kilimani and Kileleshwa. Governor Sakaja has defended the proposal saying the population is growing and there is demand for housing.
