Road accident claims 23 relatives and friends in my village Kawethei

Writen by David Mutua.
Kenyan Prime Minister visiting the survivors.
It's a sad week in my village in
Kawethei, Kangundo Kenya. 26 family and
relatives, neighbors and friends died and many are going through a painfull and
tough time due to injuries sustained over the weekend through the worst road
accident of the year in Kenya. Thanks to the Kenyan Government for offering
support for funeral and hospital expenses, we appreciate very much.

We are requesting for prayers and soon CALD - http://www.thecald.com through our
facebook group the Kawethei Community Development Network will be working with
people on the ground, family members, friends and friends of Kawethei people to
setup a mid term and probably long term support system to those families that
were affected.

I know what it feels like when government, friends and family support the
shortterm and leave you, thats when reality sinks. Life is not same anymore. I
am the first born and I lost both my parents in 1995.

May the almight God Rest the souls of those left us in eternal peace, give the
hand of the Holy spirit for quick recovery for the injured and endurance for
those that were left behind.
