On Wednesday morning, a devastating crash occurred along Kangundo Road, claiming the lives of five people.

The incident involved a Toyota Probox vehicle that rammed into a KBS bus, which then collided with a pick-up truck at the notorious Kamulu blackspot.

Nairobi County police commander Philip Ndolo confirmed the incident, stating that the five bodies had been taken to the City Mortuary, while the injured were being treated at a nearby hospital.

Separately, a fatal accident occurred on Tuesday near Thuci River in Tharaka Nithi County, resulting in the death of one prisoner and injuring eight others who were being transported to Meru.

Embu Prison officer in-charge Henry Ochieng attributed the accident to the driver losing control of the vehicle on the steep road, which rolled near Kathageri.
