Kileleshwa MCA Robert Alai now wants brothels to be secluded in their own estates, stating that they have become numerous in residential areas.
The MCA on Sunday said that there are many brothels in his ward as well as in Kilimani.
"We need to create an estate just for these many brothels opened deep in residential estates. We have so many brothels in Kilimani and Kileleshwa," he said.
Alai said the brothels in the residential areas at times become a nuisance to those living around.
He said as much as people need entertainment joints, it ought to be done in a more orderly manner and not haphazardly.
"We need sanity in residential areas. Yes, we need the sin side sometimes but shouldn’t be the norm. Make it discreet and interesting. It can’t be all over as it is," the MCA said.
However, this is not the first time the MCA has lamented over the nuisance caused by entertainment joints close to residential areas.
In late November last year, Alai took to Twitter to celebrate after the Nairobi county government moved to revoke the operating licences of nightclubs located near residential areas.
City Hall said it cancelled licences for the establishments in residential areas following an uproar from the public.
It said henceforth, no licences will be issued to nightclubs in those areas save for those in the Central Business District.
Alai who had been at the forefront of calling out the clubs for being a nuisance in residential areas due to noise pollution lauded the move.
"We are winning this war. We don’t start a war we can’t win. Thank you Governor Johnson Sakaja," he said in a statement.
