Paradox of city’s poor renting out affordable houses to the wealthy

At least six people were reported dead in Nairobi last Monday after heavy rains pounded the city, with informal settlements, or rather slums, being the most affected.

In the city’s Mukuru Kwa Reuben slums, one person died after being swept away by floods, with more than 500 residents being displaced in the different slums across Nairobi.
