Chief Justice Emeritus Willy Mutunga. [File, Standard]Chief Justice Emeritus Willy Mutunga’s rhetorical question “Are African governments in the business of selling Turkish citizens to the dictatorship in Türkiye?” deserves closer attention. With the recent arrests of Mustafa Güngör in Kenya and Emre Çınar in Mozambique, a new wave of transnational repression appears to be rising on African soil.

Public Service Cabinet Secretary Geoffrey Ruku has vowed stern action against all individuals found culpable in the collapse of a multi-storey building in Nairobi. Ruku said that preliminary investigations point to gross negligence and blatant disregard of lawful construction orders. Addressing the media at the scene of the incident, CS Ruku revealed that according to official approval documents, the building had been cleared for a maximum of 12 floors but had already reached the 14th floor at the time of collapse. "According to approval documents which we have, this building was supposed to go for 12 floors, but it is reported it was already at 14th floor. Therefore, at the preliminary investigations, it is expected that the building has collapsed because of column overload,” Ruku said.

Mystery new planet seen hurtling through space leaving scientists baffledBoffins are looking into the planet, which seems to be hurtling through the universe with no destination in sight — just weeks after 3I/ATLAS passed through our solar systemView 4 Images Scientists have been left baffled by their newest space discovery (stock) (Image: J. Skowron / OGLE)Scientists have unearthed a rogue planet that appears to be floating through space with no star. ‌But now, scientists have been left baffled by this new discovery, as it appears to have no host star to connect itself to. Astronomers have said the universe is filled these rogue planets as they float across space with no specific route. This method is only able to be used when a rogue planet managed to pass between Earth and another star in the distance. This still makes the rogue planet incredibly huge and could easily dwarf the Earth with its size.

Nairobi City County has revealed that the 14-storey building that collapsed in South C on Friday had been flagged repeatedly by county enforcement teams months before the tragedy, raising serious concerns about regulatory compliance and oversight within the construction sector. According to a situation report issued by City Hall, the building located at Plot No. Specialised monitoring equipment, including theodolite and laser instruments, has been deployed to continuously assess any movement, cracking, tilting, or ground subsidence as rescue operations continue. In a statement on Friday, the National Construction Authority (NCA) Executive Director Maurice Akech said the collapsed building was non-compliant. "At the time of issuing the statement, search and rescue operations and site securing activities were ongoing in coordination with relevant emergency and security agencies."

The President’s instructions, Ruku said, focus on rescuing those trapped and ensuring a thorough investigation into the causes of the collapse. According to Ruku, rescue teams are working round the clock to locate the trapped individuals. Relatives of the watchmen are at the site, anxiously following every move of the rescue teams as they comb through unstable debris. He called for calm among the public and urged people to allow the rescue teams to operate without interference.
