Kenyan pilgrims trek every year to join their Ugandan faithful in remembrance of the Ugandan martyrs.
Four pilgrims from the Bungoma Catholic Diocese died on Sunday morning after they were knocked down by a speeding matatu along the busy Iganga-Jinja highway in Uganda.
Two of them died on the spot, while two others passed on upon arrival at Iganga Hospital, Uganda.
