Nairobi County Chief Officer for Environment, Geoffrey Mosiria, claims to have been verbally attacked and threatened as he was responding to a noise pollution incident within the city on Saturday, July 6.

In a statement on Sunday, July 6, Mosiria said that the incident occurred during an event held on Dennis Pritt Road in Kilimani, opposite Roadhouse Grill and adjacent to the Spinal Injury Hospital.

Originally, Mosiria and a team from his department had received a complaint that a club that is said to be near the State House was causing excessive noise; however, after scrutiny, the team determined that the noise was actually from the event along Dennis Pritt Road.

Mosiria claimed that the event was using large sound systems, which he compared to those used at Uhuru Park.
