Nairobi County officials have issued warnings to residents maintaining livestock in densely populated residential areas after discovering sheep and goats kept along a street in Kiamaiko. Environment Chief Officer Geoffrey Mosiria described the practice as unlawful and harmful to neighboring families who must endure foul odors emanating from animals housed near their homes.

Mosiria contacted one property owner and provided seven days to relocate the livestock or face impoundment by agricultural officers. He emphasized that urban farming requires adherence to licensing protocols and designated zones rather than informal roadside arrangements in compact neighborhoods.

County regulations mandate livestock registration under owner names and proper land allocation through government portals. Penalties for uncontrolled animals include fines reaching 70,000 shillings or detention periods spanning two to five months for infractions such as allowing cattle disturbances in commercial districts. Mosiria urged residents to understand legal requirements governing animal ownership within municipal boundaries.
