The iconic artificial elephant tusks along Moi Avenue, one of the major tourist attraction sites in the port city of Mombasa, are on the verge of collapsing due to lack of maintenance.
The joints of the two imposing tusks have rusted, and one is tilting forward due to the damage and years of neglect.
Hundreds of tourists tour the area to see the magnificent metal tusks.
It has emerged that the tusks have not been repaired or painted for the last five years as the National Museums of Kenya (NMK) and Mombasa County Government traded accusations.
