Representatives from the National Environmental Management Authority, the National Youth Service and the Nairobi County administrative offices oversaw the exercise.
The owners of the homes that were affected on Monday and had replaced their perimeter walls were shocked when the temporary iron sheet walls they had put up were also pulled down.
Residents are still upset by the way the demolition is being carried out.
Rosemary, an owner of Sunflower Apartments said residents should have been sensitised about the demolitions.
"If they had come and told us nicely that we needed to clear land up to a certain level, we would have cooperated," she said
