Preliminary reports indicate that the bus was seen carelessly overtaking other vehicles on the busy road.
Occupants of the said vehicle included siblings, who were travelling from Kisumu a week after burying their mother.
According to a family member, James Wegesa, his wife and brother were returning to the city after burying their mother. His wife was with their 3-year-old child, and his brother-in-law with a child and wife too. One other relative was with them.
“I just had a small family my wife and daughter. I am left alone. I am a driver by profession; drivers tend to be careless …. My family was climbing uphill, then the bus was going down on the climbing lane.
Someone who was not careful has done this to me,” Wegesa told Citizen Digital in Nakuru.
Wegesa recalled calling his wife, only for the phone to be picked by a police officer asking him to visit the station.
