Several passengers sustained injuries after ENA Coach bus travelling from Nairobi to Usenge overturned along the Nakuru-Kericho highway on Tuesday, July 4.
An ENA Bus Company official confirmed to a local media outlet that the injured were taken to the nearby Londiani Hospital for treatment.
“It is true the accident occurred when the bus was moving from Nairobi to Kericho. Passengers suffered minor injuries and were rushed to Londiani Hospital,” the bus stated.
Students returning to school after the midterm break were among those aboard.
Residents were assisting other emergency personnel in rescuing passengers from the bus at the time of publication.
However, the cause of the accident was not immediately determined.
The Ena bus coach accident happened just a few kilometres away from the tragic Londiani accident, which killed 52 people. The trailer’s braking system failed, according to the driver, causing the crash.
