“Till death do us part,” a common phrase used in weddings, tragically came true for two friends.
Steve Koech and David Tibai tragically lost their lives in a fatal road accident along Moim – Talket road.
The two young men were close friends, classmates, and immediate neighbors in Talket, Elgeyo Border, Moiben, Uasin Gishu county.
A heartbreaking post expressed condolences, urging support for the grieving families during this difficult time.
The post also included pictures of the two young men who tragically passed away in the horror accident.
UPEPO.co.ke reached out to Emmanuel Rono, whose contact information was shared, to facilitate financial contributions for the families.
“A matatu heading to Talket collided with our youths who were on their way home. Despite efforts from the public and local community members to rush them to Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital (MTRH), tragically, both succumbed to their injuries. Losing two energetic and hardworking men is deeply unfortunate. They were my close neighbors,” he said.
