THE CURSED TRIBE

Dear, dear, dear. I don't know and I'm not saying what I don't know or haven't noticed but one section of Kenya is very prone to disaster especially when traveling home to bury one of their own.

Now last week, not very long ago, one of those buses that take you to Nyanza and Western Provinces through Naivasha and Eldoret crushed. Again. This is only a few months after another Matatu Van crushed with the same results. A death among the passengers who were going to bury their dead. Is it that they are cursed or is the road bad or is it that the drivers from those areas are always drunk? No. I don't think so. The driver involved in the most recent accident was totally and completely sober. One could tell from the way he was talking on TV. And lucky for him, his time had not yet come. He escaped without a scratch.

These guys were going to bury one body, but by the afternoon, they had to plan for two bodies.
Is there something these people know and are not telling us?
