Residents of Nairobi’s Nyayo Embakasi Estate want the High Court to quash a decision by the environment regulator allowing the installation of six telecommunication masts in their neighbourhood.
In an application filed before the Land and Environment Court, the Nyayo Embakasi Residents Association (Nera) argues that the installation of a Base Transceiver Station poses a health risk from radiation and will cause depreciation of their properties due to an “automatic mass movement”.
