Nairobi County Chief Officer for Environment, Geoffrey Mosiria claims to have been verbally attacked recently as he was responding to a noise pollution incident within Nairobi.
Taking to his socials, Mosiria said that the incident occurred during an event held on Dennis Pritt Road in Kilimani, opposite Roadhouse Grill and adjacent to the Spinal Injury Hospital.
According to Mosiria, he had received a complaint that a club that is said to be near the State House was causing excessive noise.

However, after scrutiny with his team, they determined that the noise was actually from the event along Dennis Pritt Road.
Mosiria claimed that the event was using large sound systems, which he compared to those used at Uhuru Park.
After trying to urge the organiser to reduce the noise, the organiser turned violent against the team and even went to the extent of insulting them.
He went on to disclose that the noise from the event was causing an uncomfortable environment in the neighbourhood, especially for the patients admitted to the hospital nearby.
Mosiria has long been firm against noise pollution within the city and he frequently stresses the need for entertainment joints and events to adhere to the necessary law to avoid unnecessary disturbance through noise pollution.
