A fuel tanker overturned following an accident along the Makutano-Ngurubani road in Kirinyaga County. Kirinyaga Residents Run to Siphon Fuel as Tanker Overturns After Horrific Accident: “We Never Learn” Eyewitnesses disclosed that the truck collided with a personal car before losing control and overturning. In a sad video shared by Citizen Digital, tens of residents dashed to siphon fire from the ill-fated tanker.It was evident they were either oblivious to the dangers they were putting their lives into, or they ignored the risks. Some expressed disappointment that they arrived late at the accident scene and missed the fuel. “Those who were here first were lucky to siphon it. I came late so didn’t find any,” an eyewitness said. @Dr_F_Francis “Shouldn’t the police do their job as a part of protecting properties? If there are no ethics or even safety awareness, then at least start it with law enforcement!” SafeWayRightWayKE: “We never learn the lesson #Sachagwan tragedy taught us. The public must stop crowding at hazardous cargo crash scenes.” Carte Blanche : “This has no cure. Let people die. I think it borders natural selection. Joshua going around the walls of Jericho won’t make the walls come down this time, unfortunately.” @JBlasiok: “Could it be that a section of our society is naturally dumb from birth? Yet we expect such to make rational decisions at the ballot. Deeply profound and confounding spectacle.”
