The Nairobi County Executive Committee Member (CECM) for Environment, Geoffrey Mosiria, has launched a crackdown on shops playing loud music in the Central Business District (CBD).

Taking to his official channels, Mosiria stated that the move was a result of the disruptive nature of this loud music that, he claimed, derailed operations in other establishments. "We have initiated a crackdown on shops within the Central Business District (CBD) that are playing loud music.

The noise pollution from these establishments has made it difficult for other business owners to operate effectively, with some even reporting health complications, including mental health issues," Mosiria stated.

According to the chief officer, there were other institutions, like schools and crucial offices in the CBD, whose operations were disrupted by this noise pollution.
