Tenants of Wisdom Estate in Lela were shocked after one of the tenants decided to break down a pit latrine in the hope of recovering Kshs. 3, 000 that allegedly into the pit.
The tenant who is believed to have gone to relieve himself allegedly dropped the Kshs. 3, 000 in the latrine which was in his wallet which he says had some other important documents as well.
To the shock of the tenants, he started digging through the floor of the pit. Tenants tried to stop him but he would not listen. By the time the landlord arrived a better part of the pit had been destroyed.
“This is the most awkward scene I have ever experienced. How would he pull down the pit because of a mere Kshs. 3, 000?” said the annoyed landlord.
The tenant defended his actions saying that the money was the months’ rent and he had no other money.
“We tried to stop him but he would not listen. We thought he had gone insane,” said Terry Bundi, a tenant.
He however finally recovered the money but the Landlord would not tolerate his behavior as he asked him to move out of the plot and threatened to sue him for damages caused.
