Ziwani/Kariokor Member of County Assembly (MCA), Millicent Wambui, is lucky to be alive after the personal car she was travelling in rammed head-on into an oncoming trailer on Sunday 9th leaving four of her friends dead on the spot in Gilgil.
According to the reports making rounds on social media Millicent and her friends were on their way back to Nairobi after spending their weekend in Western Kenya where they had gone to give their friend his final send off.
Luckily for the MCA, she escaped with injuries and was airlifted by the Mike Sonko team to the St Mary’s Hospital, Gilgil where she is currently fighting for her life. Her friends on the other hand died on the spot and their bodies were brought back to Chiromo mortuary in Nairobi.
Mike Sonko made the announcement through his social media pages where he wrote to say,
“Hon. Millicent was the only one who survived with numerous fractures, she was rushed to St. Mary’s hospital in gilgil but the hospital had no facilities. However I personally flew to the hospital where I found Hon. Hashim Kamau, nominated Mca Hon.Janet Owala and a women rep aspirant on the ground. We organised for Hon. Millicent to be airlifted to Nairobi hospital where she’s currently admitted. My team was also on the ground to organise for the transportation of the 4 deceased bodies to Chiromo mortuary in Nairobi. I wish Hon. Millicent a quick recovery and also pray to the Almighty God to rest the souls of the deceased in eternal peace,”
Millicent Wambui is quite popular among the youths as she was an actress before she decided to venture into politics in 2013. She also represented Kenya in the reality tv series Big Brother Africa a while back.
We send our heartfelt condolences to the families who lost their loved ones in this tragic accident.
