Three Dead in Horrific Naivasha Accident

Three people were killed and over 10 others injured on  Monday, September 9, following a grisly road crash along the Nakuru-Nairobi highway. 

The accident that involved a 14-seater matatu and a tour bus caused a heavy traffic snarl-up along the highway between the toll station area and Delamere shopping centre.

In a photo seen by Kenyans.co.ke, the matatu is seen to have been extensively damaged with the front half of the roof caving in and belongings of probable passengers scattered at the scene.

According to Naivasha Sub-County Police Commander Samuel Waweru, several passengers sustained injuries and were rushed to hospital.

“The matatu driver headed towards Nairobi was trying to overtake a fleet of vehicles when the accident occurred at around midday,” Waweru told the Daily Nation.
