Recently, questions have arisen about the fairness and transparency of the allocation process. This report delves into the experiences of Jerusha Muthoni, a tenant residing in one of these government-provided houses. Ms. Muthoni's account offers a glimpse into the realities faced by some residents.

She describes issues such as maintenance and the overall living conditions. The video shows the house's interior and exterior, illustrating her points.
