Three people, who are the truck driver, his turnboy, and the driver of a small saloon car, are nursing serious injuries after their vehicles collided head-on this Friday morning.
The accident, which occurred in Kocholia on the Malaba-Bungoma highway, involved a fuel tanker truck and a small saloon car that was heading towards Bungoma. However, it is alleged that the truck driver did not notice a bump/road hump on the road, lost control, and hit the small car, dragging it for several meters.
The driver of the small car, identified as Esau Ochakala, the Chief Officer for Education in Busia County, was taken to Moi Referral Hospital - Bungoma for treatment.
