  • Witnesses at the scene said the driver of the tanker lost control and hit the other vehicle which created chain of knocks.
  • Among the burnt vehicles was a pick-up truck carrying administration police officers that was heading to Nairobi.
The number of people who died on Saturday evening when a truck carrying inflammable substances rammed into several vehicles before bursting into flames near Karai on the Nairobi-Naivasha Highway has increased to 40, deputy county commissioner Isaac Masinde has said.

Witnesses at the scene said the driver of the tanker lost control and hit the other vehicle which created chain of knocks.

The accident on the busy highway, some 80 kilometres west of Nairobi created a horrible scene.

NTSA boss Francis Meja confirmed that 12 vehicles have been burnt, adding that one is a PSV and the rest are private.

The matatu was carrying 14 passengers, who have all perished.

The actual death toll could be higher given the number of vehicles involved.

The tanker, which was coming from Nairobi, was negotiating the hilly part of the road, before knocking a matatu and exploded into flames.

MEDICS STRIKE

The accident on the busy highway, some 80 kilometres west of Nairobi created a horrible scene.

Earlier, a Kenya Red Cross official said rescuers had taken 30 bodies to Naivasha Sub-County Hospital Mortuary.

The accident happened on the fifth day of a national strike by doctors and nurses, something that could worsen the conditions of the casualties.

Karai is about five kilometres from Naivasha Sub-County Hospital, one of the facilities affected by the industrial action.

Doctors have claimed the government must fulfill the conditions in the Collective Bargaining Agreement signed in 2013; to increase their pay, improve working conditions and hire more doctors to reduce workload.

On Saturday evening, nurses announced they had agreed on a return to work formula.

But the final decision to call off the strike rests with the outcome of a planned meeting of the National Executive Council of the Kenya National Union of Nurses on Sunday.

Among the burnt vehicles was a pick-up truck carrying administration police officers that was heading to Nairobi. Three of them are among the dead. Eight magazines of the guns they were carrying were recovered.
