Tenants ordered out of life-threatening city storey building in Tanzania

[eliakeem]

There was another incident of a building collapsing in the middle of the Dar city, I remember back then I was in Tz. It's a common occurrence. See this video...in the middle of city.

HAPANA aisee usitafutize mambo yaliyatokea miaka mingi iliyopita. It happens, but not common like the way it occurs in Nairobi.

Issue yangu ni kwamba kamvua kanaangusha jengo katikati mwa jiji kuu la Dar, hilo tukio nimekuletea video ilikua mjini kati, yaani hatari ya ufisadi uliopitiliza.
Matukio mengine hayafai kabisa katikati mwa mji ambao ndio sura ya nchi.

Jengo Linaanguka Katikati ya Nairobi CBD an linganisha na nyumba ambayo wahandisi wanashuku tu.. Limbukeni huyu!

Huyo jamaa ni wivu na pia akili ya kujenga hoja ni ndogo sana ni sawa na kichaa kabisa, usipoteze nguvu zako.

Sidhani KAMA mvua ndiyo ilikuwa chanzo cha kuanguka kwa jengo hilo. Na kwa SASA majengo hayataanguka tena kwa sababu kuna serious building quality control.

Kama sio mvua basi ni mbaya hata zaidi, yaani jengo lianguke lenyewe katikati ya mji mkuu wa biashara, halafu hizo controls za siku hizi ni zipi maana nimeona sehemu ufisadi umetajwa kufanyika juzi wa 1.5 trillion, jameni kwa nchi yenu ilivyo maskini aise hizo hela ni ndefu.

Jengo haliko CBD liko residential area eneo la upanga japo sio mbali sanaaa na CBD

Hapa unatudanganya ati common occurrence, tuonyeshe lingine lililoanguka Dar. Hilo jengo mmiliki alileta ujanja na rusha akajenga ghorofa nyingi kuliko zilizo kubakiwa na city kwa foundation ile ile ya original plan. Tena walivunja na jengo lingine pembeni yake lilikuwa linamilikiwa na huyo huyo mwenye jengo lililoanguka. Kwenye usalama wa majengo Dar hutaki utani, tuko almost below sea level, hatuwezi kuleta utani kwenye foundation na structure za nyumba kubwa.

Lives have been saved...

The building regulations don’t seem to matter in some places in Africa...I wish people were not in hurry to make profit quickly....Why one would put a heavy investment on shaky foundation literally and figuratively always amazes me...

Some colonial buildings are still standing over 100 years later with no hints of a crack...Due diligence must be made a priority not an after thought in architecture...Gratefully lives saved this time..

In Kenya these kind of things happen on the outskirts where investors can pay quacks to do designs for them and bribe some city hall officials to get it done. In the middle of the city? This is one very pathetic case.

Hamna kitu inakera kama every topic inazua Ukenya Utanzania mara Unyarwanda bila kugundua kwamba hizo boundaries ziliwekwa na mkoloni na kwenye mipaka kuna jamii zinaongea same language, wanafanya business pamoja na wanasocialize kabisa, hii ukiachia mbali ndugu waliotenganishwa na hii hii mipaka, acheni undezi, we are all waafrika!

The consultant must be in trouble. The consulting firm has to be blacklisted.

Majengo ya zamani ndiyo yana anguka au yale yaliyo ongezwa ghorofa kinyume na sheria kuna baadhi ya watu binafsi wenye tamaa wanaongeza gorofa kwenye majengo dhaifu hapa Tanzania ni wakati wa kuwadhibiti na kuvunja mijengo mibovu yote cbd

Yes I do remember that.

My question is will insurance company pay for such a damage?

Well, if there was insurance in the first place, but you've to remember that insurance companies are knows to find any loophole and avoid paying out for the damage. If the building was poorly constructed or not suitable for inhabitation, that can be use against the claim. But every case has its own merits so it's hard to say what will be the outcome of those building they where insured.

Well said!!! Our problems are very similar in most cases....

Very responsible government, ingakuwa nchi zingine wangesubiri hadi jengo libomoke na watu kupoteza maisha.

Nchi nyingine wangezuia losijengwe kabisa
