Tenants from Buruburu Estate in Nairobi County have blamed the county leadership for allegedly sending goons to forcefully evict them from the county-owned houses despite settling rent arrears.
Speaking on Friday, the residents revealed that the evictions began earlier this week, leaving dozens of families stranded, with their personal belongings thrown out, embezzled, and damaged while they watched helplessly.
According to the residents, goons posing as county officials broke into their houses, looted their valuables, and even went to the extreme of wearing their clothes and parading around the estates. "I had just left City Hall when I got a call.
By the time I returned, my house had been broken into, my bags taken, and strangers were walking around with my clothes.
