A night of chaos unfolded on Kisii and Nairobi-Mombasa roads as two trucks collided with pedestrians, leaving at least 10 dead and over 30 injured. The first incident occurred on Wednesday night near the Kisii CBD–Daraja Mbili Road, where a lorry lost control and crashed into a group of people. Emergency services were called to the scene, but the toll was severe.
Another collision took place on the Nairobi-Mombasa highway, though details remain unclear. Witnesses reported heavy traffic and poor road conditions contributing to the accidents. Local authorities have begun an investigation into the causes of the crashes.
The incidents have raised concerns about road safety in the region. Officials have urged drivers to exercise caution, especially during nighttime hours. No official statements have been released yet, but the community is calling for improved infrastructure and stricter enforcement of traffic laws.
Authorities are still assessing the full extent of the damage and the number of victims. The road closures have caused significant disruption to local commuters and businesses.
