 President Uhuru Kenyatta and the Inspector General of Police Joseph Boinnet visited the scene of the collapsed six-storey building in Huruma on Saturday morning. 
 
 The President ordered for the search and arrest of the owner of the building. 
 
 The order came after Nairobi Deputy Governor Jonathan Mueke said the construction of the building had not been approved by City Hall. 
 
 The building is said to have had 198 single rooms. 
 
 Mr Mueke said up to 70 per cent of residential building in Nairobi do not have formal approvals from City Hall. 
 
 The deputy Governor has also ordered residents living in semi-permanent houses near the collapsed building to relocate due to fears that a nearby river could soon burst its banks with the ongoing heavy rains. 
 
 The death toll from the collapsed six-storey building has reached seven and the number of injured stands at 121. 
 
 “Seven people are confirmed dead and 121 people have been rescued and rushed to various hospitals in Nairobi,” Nairobi county police boss Japheth Koome told Reuters.

 At least 23 people have so far been confirmed dead after the six-storey residential block in Nairobi’s poor Huruma district crumbled on Friday night. Police are questioning the owners after President Uhuru Kenyatta ordered them detained. 
 
 “The child, who had been buried for about 80 hours, was found in a bucket wrapped in a blanket. She appeared dehydrated, and with no visible physical injuries,” the Kenya Red Cross said in a statement. 
 
 The baby, named as Dealeryn Saisi Wasike, was identified by her father after she was taken to hospital for treatment, the Red Cross said. A Red Cross official said the fate of her mother was still not clear. 
 
 The collapse of the building was the latest such disaster in a fast expanding African city that is struggling to build homes fast enough. 
 
 Like many other cities in Africa, the population of Nairobi has climbed dramatically in recent years. The Kenyan capital had almost 3.5 million people in 2011, about a third bigger than a decade earlier, according to U.N. figures. 
 
 Governments have struggled to provide basic infrastructure and bureaucratic processes to ensure planning rules are met. 
 
 Many Kenyans who come to the city in search of work end up in one of several slums, such as Kibera, made up of makeshift homes of wood and corrugated iron sheets. 
 
 Others live in slightly better off but still poor districts, like Huruma, where concrete buildings have risen rapidly amid potholed roads and ropey power supplies. Heavy rains have caused other collapses in Nairobi but without such high death tolls. 
 
 The Interior Ministry said the Huruma building had been earmarked for demolition as it was built close to a river, but the order had not been carried out by local officials. It urged developers to adhere to safety standards. 
 
 After visiting the site on Saturday, Kenya’s president ordered other buildings to be surveyed to ensure they were safe. 
 
 Rescue workers had said on Monday that the chances of finding more survivors was unlikely. 
 
 Nairobi County police commander Japheth Koome told Reuters the death toll stood at 23 while 136 people had been saved from the wreckage. He said the number of deaths could rise as the search continued. 
 
 Dozens of other people are still listed as missing, Red Cross spokeswoman Arnolda Shiundu said, adding it was not clear how many of those had escaped but had not yet been traced. 
 
 Similar disasters have afflicted other African conurbations. In 2014, a church in Lagos, one of Africa’s biggest cities, collapsed killing 115 people. A Nigerian coroner last year blamed poor construction. 
 
 Poor and illegal construction has also often been blamed for the crumbling of apartment blocks in Egypt, where almost all Egyptians are crammed into the crowded Nile Valley and buildings are often extended with extra floors piled on top. ||||| Image copyright BONNY ODHIAMBO Image caption The girl was said to be dehydrated but with no visible injuries 
 
 A six-month-old girl has been rescued from the debris of a building that collapsed four days ago in the Kenyan capital, Nairobi. 
 
 Later the Kenyan Red Cross said the baby, Dealeryn Saisi Wasike, was reunited with her father. She has no physical injuries. 
 
 The six-storey residence came down in heavy rain, killing at least 23 people. 
 
 Dozens of others are still thought to be buried under the rubble, but hopes of finding more alive are fading. 
 
 The baby's mother is still missing. 
 
 The building had been earmarked for demolition. Its owner was due to appear in court on Tuesday charged with manslaughter. 
 
 Africa Live: BBC News updates 
 
 Samuel Karanja Kamau was arrested on Monday. Officials say he did not have permission to rent out the building's 119 rooms. 
 
 Mr Kamau has not yet commented on the allegation. 
 
 About 135 people have been freed so far from the collapsed building, local media report. Another 93 have been reported missing.

 The Kenya Red Cross said the baby girl was found in the rubble at 04:00 local time (01:00 GMT), in a bucket wrapped in a blanket. 
 
 Dealeryn appeared dehydrated, but had no visible injuries, it added. She was rushed to hospital for treatment. 
 
 She was originally reported to have been one-and-a-half years old. 
 
 The fact that the baby was not seriously injured played a key role in her survival, said Dr Ian MacOnachie, an expert in emergency medicine and clinical standards at the UK's Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health. 
 
 Dr MacOnachie told the BBC that, at this age, up to 90% of babies' bodies was made up of water, acting as a "natural storage" in cases of dehydration. 
 
 "She must have been fairly dried when she was found. But I'm not completely surprised," he said. 
 
 'Strong daughter' 
 
 Several hours later, the Red Cross tweeted that it had located the baby's father, Ralson Saisi Wasike, through its tracing services. 
 
 He was reunited with Dealeryn, whom he positively identified.

 More bodies were retrieved overnight. 
 
 Mr Wasike, speaking at a shelter where he has been living since the building collapsed, said his daughter had been strong but he had feared for the worst when he was unable to find her. 
 
 He had visited hospitals and mortuaries to look for his child, and was overjoyed when he heard she had been rescued.

 How long can survivors last under rubble? ||||| There were celebrations in Huruma, Nairobi, after a one and a half year-old girl was rescued from rubble four days after a building collapsed. 
 
 A team that was removing the rubble found the child emaciated on the first floor, early on Tuesday morning. 
 
 The child was found in a bucket wrapped in a blanket, Kenya Red Cross said via Twitter adding she appeared dehydrated and with no visible physical injuries. 
 
 The girl was rushed to hospital where officials said she had run out of energy but was being stabilised. 
 
 Twenty three people have been reported dead and 136 rescued so far. Rescuers said they intend to clear the rubble today. 
 
 Five people are expected in court today to face charges of manslaughter over the collapse. 
 
 They include officials from the National Construction Authority, City Hall’s inspectorate department, an engineer in charge of the site and the two brothers who own the house. 
 
 The house collapsed on Friday night trapping dozens of people. Reports indicate there was no construction plan and that the building had not been approved.
– At least 23 people are reported dead after an unapproved building collapsed Friday in Nairobi, Kenya, per the Star, but the Kenya Red Cross offered a bit of hope early Tuesday. "Good news! A child aged about one and half years rescued alive at 0400 hours," the organization tweeted, adding in a press release that the baby had been found 80 hours after the collapse nestled in a bucket and wrapped in a blanket. Although the child, IDed as Dealeryn Saisi Wasike by the BBC (which also says she's only 6 months old), seemed dehydrated, there were no other immediate signs of injury, and she's now recuperating at a nearby hospital. The Red Cross' Twitter feed also indicates the baby has been reunited with her dad, though the group says it hasn't confirmed what happened to her mother, per Reuters. Media reports differ, but estimates hover at around 140 rescued so far and almost 100 still missing after the six-story building slated for demolition in the Huruma district crumbled after heavy rains Friday. At least five people are due in court Tuesday to face manslaughter charges, including a city inspection official, a rep from the nation's construction agency, the building's engineer, and two brothers who own the site. The owners didn't have permission to rent the building out, and it was apparently never approved by the city. That last point doesn't appear to be an anomaly: Nairobi's deputy governor tells Nairobi News that up to 70% of residential buildings don't have formal approval from City Hall. Kenya's president surveyed the damage Saturday and demanded that other buildings in the area be examined for safety issues. (A building that blew up in NYC had failed a work inspection just an hour before the blast.)
