There was an extended delay in traffic movement along Waiyaki Way this morning due to a broken sewer line that was spilling waste onto one side of the busy road.
From videos of the incident which happened at Sodom, just before the former Kangemi Bridge as you drive up Waiyaki Way, only a few motorists could brave the brown shower with some growing hesitant as they approached what looked like a giant fountain of sh*t.
“Perhaps Cyrus Oguna is right. We should pay taxes without complaining. Just look at the great services we receive,” an angry Kenyan captioned one of the many clips doing rounds

Under the comments section, many other upset netizens called out the current General Badi-led Nairobi Metropolitan Services (NMS) for failing to clean up the mess hours after numerous complaints from road users.
The NMS
The NMS was created by President Uhuru Kenyatta last year after he grew tired of the confusion and impunity in Governor Sonko’s Nairobi City County.
At the time Uhuru said the NMS would be responsible for improving services in the city, including implementing a new rail transport system in measures aimed at modernising the city.
The NMS would now undertake effective garbage collection, take over the operations of health facilities as well as the management of Nairobi Water Company.
