Hatua Likoni sends its condolences to Ferry accident victims.

At least four people were killed and several others injured when a lorry lost control and rammed into passengers boarding a ferry in Likoni, Mombasa.

A lorry that lost break and entered in water without harming passengers.

This is not the first time that a lorry has lost control, other times the lorry enters in water without causing any harm to passengers. But since this accidence has occurred, the Kenya ferry services should learn from it.

They should take protective measures to ensure that even if a vehicle looses control the passengers are not affected. This can be done using different methods, for example they can carry passengers differently from the vehicles. They can as well put a gate to ensure that incase a vehicle loses break they are not able to reach the passengers.

Anyway, the Kenya ferry services maybe having a better idea than any of the above mentioned as they are the experts. Hatua Likoni is sad and hopes soon there will be no more accidents in ferry that will cause any lose of lives.

“I send my sincere condolences to all those who have lost their family members and to those who have been injured during this unfortunate accident,” said Gabrielle Fondiller, the Director of Hatua Likoni.
