11 Kenyatta University students have died and 46 others injured in a collision between their bus and a truck at Maungu on the Nairobi-Mombasa highway.
According to police, the university bus travelling towards Mombasa was overtaking a fleet of vehicles and, due to heavy rain, the bus skidded to the right of the road and an oncoming truck avoided a head-on collision and rammed into the left side of the bus.
