Ruto, Gachagua, and other leaders mourn Londiani accident victims

His counterpart in the Ministry of Interior, Kithure Kindiki, urged authorities to enforce traffic rules in an effort to reduce road accidents.

"The fatal road accident at Londiani Junction in Kericho on Friday evening is a tragedy that marks a dark end to the month of June. Heartfelt condolences to the families and friends of the deceased. Speedy recovery to all survivors of the accident."

"I urge all road users to strictly adhere to traffic rules. I particularly appeal to drivers to exercise extreme caution and desist from speeding, overloading, and dangerous or careless driving. Police officers across the country are directed to enforce traffic rules firmly and apprehend all offenders flouting traffic rules, including but not limited to those driving defective and unroadworthy motor vehicles," he added.

51 people have so far died in the fatal road crash, and at least twenty-one (21) people sustained severe injuries and are receiving treatment at the Kericho County Hospital.
