A Nairobi resident has accused the Nairobi County Government of turning a blind eye to persistent noise pollution from a nightclub operating in Marsabit Plaza, Riara Road, despite repeated complaints to both the county and the National Environment Management Authority (NEMA).

In a message shared with blogger Cyprian Nyakundi, the frustrated tenant alleged that Iris Club, formerly Onyx, has disrupted the peace of residents living around Riara Road with loud weekend music and a hypeman who shouts through the night.

“Hi Cyprian, how are you? Please shed some light on this club called Iris on Marsarbit Plaza (formerly Onyx). I live on Riara Road, and genuinely speaking, we get no peace on the weekends. Music is loud, and they even have a freaking hypeman! It’s so disappointing to think that this is right next to residential,” the aggrieved resident stated.

The complainant further revealed that tenants have written several times to both NEMA and Nairobi County, but no meaningful action has been taken.

“They are so oblivious of the fact that they are disturbing the peace. We have written to the county and NEMA several times, but nothing has been done,” he stated.

The spotlight is now on Nairobi County’s Chief Officer for Environment, Geoffrey Mosiria, who has in the past publicly staged raids on noisy nightclubs, churches, and outdoor events in areas such as Pipeline.

Mosiria has often documented these crackdowns on social media, presenting himself as a champion against noise pollution.

However, Kenyans now argue that his silence on the Iris Club paints a picture of selective enforcement, with some questioning why some establishments are targeted while others continue to operate unchecked.

Noise pollution has been a long-standing issue in Nairobi, especially in areas where residential estates border entertainment spots.

The apparent inconsistency in enforcement threatens to undermine the county’s efforts to restore order and protect residents’ right to a peaceful environment.

As frustrations mount, residents around Riara Road are now demanding urgent action against Iris Club, warning that selective enforcement not only erodes public trust but also encourages impunity among offenders.
