ACCIDENT

Five people have been killed after a lorry lost control and rammed into another truck on the opposite side of the dual carriageway in Westlands.

Eye witnesses said the accident occurred shortly before 10am.

They told reporters at the scene that the driver of the lorry which was ferrying electricity poles from Eldoret lost control and veered into traffic on the other carriageway.

A light truck that was carrying about 11 staff from a multi-media company was hit leaving five people dead on the spot.

Another five were said to have been wounded and taken to hospital.

Gigiri police chief David Kerina said the driver of the lorry that was ferrying poles fled the scene.
