Your source seems to contradict 'six buliding collapses per month':
"A six-story building collapsed Friday night in Nairobi, killing at least a dozen people. Several buildings in Kenya have collapsed in the past year. Why?"
- jhallenworld 5y agoMy source for the 6/month figure is this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=okPYJ4l-lBI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=okPYJ4l-lBI Only the big ones end up in the media.. But you are right it seems like an overestimate. I found this showing 17 buildings collapsed in eight years, citing a CMU study: https://www.thenewhumanitarian.org/news/2016/05/02/kenya-s-long-history-housing-disasters https://www.thenewhumanitarian.org/news/2016/05/02/kenya-s-l...
