The county government of Nairobi has brought down the famous ‘pimp my ride’ car wash on the controversial land where simmers Bar and Restaurant used to be.
However, the business owner identified as Nderitu laments that they were not issued with any notice pending the demolitions.
He further expressed his shock over the county government’s move to demolish the structure asserting they they have licences to carry out their business from that place.
Ikianza kujengwa walikuwa wapi? They should have demolished it immediately it started.

Nairobi Governor Mike Sonko on Saturday warned the business owner affirming to him that the county will see to it that his car wash is brought down following his alleged involvement in the destruction of a school, Kinda Start, in Buruburu Phase 4.
It's Vendetta..he said it in Buruburu during that scuffle between his thugs and those evicting a church..knee jerk reactions to issues after drowning in Whiskey.

A business owner in the complex stated that he was surprised over the exercise since the County Government issued them with licenses.
“I had a clothes business here and officials just came in early morning and started arresting people and marking our structures,” Kenja Muthui, a businessman there stated.
“We do not know why this happened and I do not know what I will do next as this was my source of livelihood.”
