He further revealed that a high rise building of over six floors standing next to the just demolished Java Restaurant and Shell Kileleshwa, would be brought down on Monday afternoon. The building is stationed few meters from the river, and adjacent to the road.

Reports indicated that the demolition is to pave way for the cleaning of Nairobi River which is choking with dirt. Earlier, there were claims that the management of Shell had planned to speak to the government to stop the demolition, but it fell on the deaf ears.
