At least six people were killed and more than a dozen others injured in two separate road accidents in Kericho and Bungoma counties on Saturday, adding to the growing number of fatalities on Kenyan roads.

The first crash occurred at about 6pm at the Baseline area along the Muhoroni–Londiani road in Fort Ternan, Kericho County, where three pillion passengers, including a juvenile, lost their lives after a motorcycle collided head-on with a public service vehicle.

According to police, a Toyota matatu belonging to Molo Bright SACCO was travelling towards Muhoroni when a Bajaj Boxer motorcycle heading towards Londiani suddenly veered onto the wrong lane, causing the fatal collision.
