Garage workers based at the Grogon market woke up to find their shops being brought down by bulldozers as the government went true with its directive to bring down structures 30metres close to the banks of Nairobi river.
Backed by police officers and askaris from the city county inspectorate, the structures were pulled down one by one all within the limited distance.
The market is the city's official car repair center and parts shop. With over thousands of youths working here from mechanics, painters to even food vendors all had their shops brought down from 7am.
Scavengers were not left behind as they made attempts to salvage what they could as the shop mostly made from metal were destroyed.
The government is making efforts to clean up nairobi river and restore its former glory.
