More than 15 people have perished in a Maliki Market road accident, just 600 metres from the notorious Kamukuywa Bridge where 14 died in a similar accident last week.
The accident involved a matatu which was heading to Kitale from Kamukuywa and a cane tractor belonging to West Sugar Company which was coming from the opposite direction.
14 people were confirmed dead last week, on the same Kamukuywa black spot along the Kitale-Webuye Highway.
A Nissan Matatu being driven from Kitale collided head-on with a cane trailer at the notorious bridge, the very same spot where 14 family members died in a similar accident back in 2017.
All the passengers on board the Nissan Matatu died as the cane tractor caught fire.
