 Interior Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiang’i said on Friday, October 12, he was not going to apologize again following another accident while noting the road crash in Fort Ternan could have been avoided.

Matiang’i also noted he was going to crack the whip on lazy security officers while admitting his office had to do more to tame the rising number of accidents.He was speaking in Menyenya after a meeting with teachers from Borabu constituency, Nyamira County when he also hinted at revisiting some of the laws governing transport.He said alcohol and illegal issuing of driving licences could also be contributing to the carnage.
His comments followed those of Inspector General (IG) Joseph Boinnet who indicated all traffic police officers who were on duty when the fatal Kisumu – Muhoroni Highway accident occurred would face consequences He also said police commanders who will also be found culpable are set to face disciplinary action.
