15 people lost their lives in a Friday night accident involving a 14 seater matatu and a sugar cane tractor at Maliki market.
According to eye witnesses, the matatu that was coming from Kamukuywa hit a West Sugar Company tractor as it tried to overtake another vehicle.
All the passengers in the 14 seater matatu died on the spot as the sugar cane tractor caught fire.
The accident is said to have occurred about 600 meters away from Kamukuywa Bridge where another accident that saw 14 people lose their lives occurred last week.
The duo was part of the 100 identified in a rigorous process that assessed their measurable, scalable achievements in the recent past with Time noting that they “represent the power of individuals to make significant progress in influencing the climate economy”.
While the numbers do not necessarily reflect a fully free and fair electoral competition, these African heads of state hold the record for landslide victories which often occurred in elections where opposition was locked out of participation, was weak or boycotted the polls altogether, or where the ruling party held dominant control.
A new bill before Parliament seeks to regulate how Kenyans take part in making laws, setting clear rules for public participation across all levels of government.
The matatu collided head on with a cane tractor at the notorious Kamukuywa Bridge.
