A newly built bridge in Paai, Kajiado East, has collapsed, leaving inhabitants stuck on either side.
The pillars buckled under the weight of flash floods Wednesday night, collapsing in the middle. The remaining support structures are weak and could collapse at any time.
“The bridge collapsed in the middle of the night. Those who were waiting for the rain to stop so they could return home discovered the bridge had collapsed “said a local.
The Sh100 million bridge was inaugurated last week in a colorful event by Kajiado Governor Joseph Ole Lenku.
Governor Lenku stated at the time that the construction will make it easier for villagers to reach medical facilities, marketplaces, and schools.
