Sunday, December 26, 2021 – A man was swept away by raging floods while trying to cross a flooded river in Machakos County.
Despite frequent cases of motorists losing their lives in Ukambani while trying to cross flooded rivers, he threw caution to the wind and decided to drive through the floods.
Unfortunately, his car was swept away by the floods.
According to reports, his ill-fated car was found 500 metres downstream while his body is yet to be retrieved.
That was obviously a flash flood in a very swift river. The water was gone by the time the photo was taken, so if he had waited an hour or two he would have lived to finish his trip.
