Reports reaching the Rarieda News desk is that a modern coast bus on Monday evening went up in flames along the Chavakali Kapsabet Road in Vihiga county.
According to Sonko News, the modern coast bus caught the huge fire under mysterious circumstances with other road users staring helplessly.
The incident led to huge traffic snarl up in the busy Chavakali kapsabet road with netizens asking why the Vihiga county firefighters were not in the scene to save the situation.
According to eyewitnesses, the incident happened at Mudete near Chavakali junction involving the Modern Coast bus and two other cars. It is reported that the bus was heading to Mombasa from Kakamega county before the accident happened.
At the same time, our sources have so far established that there were no casualties since all the passengers managed to get out of the vehicle alive. It is not however clear if the occupants of the two cars made it alive.
“That road is very narrow and not well maintained. The saddest bit for me though, is that no one here seems bothered by the fact that none of the people at the scene of the accident is running helter skelter to save lives. They are casually milling around the scene ~ and others recording on their phones ~ as fellow humans burn alive, and die the most agonizing death thinkable.” Said one who was around the scene.
