Two GSU officers are fighting for their lives after they were involved in an accident at Marakaru along the Kanduyi–Chwele road on Monday.

The officers, alongside 15 others who sustained minor injuries, were aboard a police vehicle heading to Chwele market.

Bungoma South OCPD David Kirui said the officers were on patrol when the incident happened.

"The officers were ensuring all was well after elections when their car hit a pothole and rolled," he said.

Kirui said the two were seriously injured and were taken to Bungoma West hospital for specialised treatment.
