The Nairobi County Government has urged scrap metal dealers across the city to report anyone attempting to sell a stolen sculpture from Nairobi Central Park to the authorities.
In a statement on Thursday, June 26, Nairobi County Chief Environment Officer for Environment Geoffrey Mosiria said that some sculptures, which were removed from the Park, are still missing and have been classified as stolen property. "Kindly, if you come across any of these sculptures at a scrap metal dealer, or if you run a scrap metal business and someone shows up with stolen property, please report it to the nearest police station," he said.
Residents and businesspeople have been urged to contact their local police station if they see anyone with any of the sculptures.
The missing sculptures depict wild animals such as elephants, lions, hyenas and buffalo, and are made of bronze.
