SEVEN CHILDREN DIE IN KENYA BUILDING COLLAPSE

Seven children died and scores were injured early on Monday when a school building collapsed in the Kenyan capital Nairobi, in an accident blamed on shoddy construction.
“So far we can confirm that we have seven fatalities and 57 others are in hospital,” government spokesman Cyrus Oguna said at the scene.
Hundreds of angry residents of Dagoretti, a poor suburb where many live in makeshift homes, swarmed around the site where rescuers picked through the rubble.
