Residents in Ruaka were today left in shock when they woke up to find a collapsed wall and a car inside a huge foundation hole in what looks like landslide

It is believed that the Landslide was caused by the ongoing rains accompanied with some shoddy works of construction.

Tenants of an apartment complex near the scene of the landslide will live to remember this day as they were not hurt in the unfortunate incident. They will however have to move out as the aftermath of the landslide left a huge tale of destruction with the building likely to go down if no plans are made to enforce it’s walls.

From pictures posted on social media, it appears like there was some construction going on in the neighbouring plot. The foundation hole was too close to the complete building’s parking wall. Rain water must have acted on the foundation’s mud wall, causing landslide-like movements.

The result was a collapse of the bordering wall, and one vehicle from the parking falling into the pit.
