Gospel singer Kelvin Bahati alias Bahati took to his Instagram page on Wednesday to pour out his heart towards the victims of the Likoni ferry accident that took place on Sunday evening.
Bahati maintained that as a country, we are not yet prepared for such emergencies and asked Kenyans to speak up citing that one can fall into an accident anytime.
"This is one of the Most HEART BREAKING (sic)videos I have ever watched. Watching your own country people drown on video. As we're watching this a man/a husband somewhere is mourning his wife, daughter and relative who perished in this incident," he said.
He further added, "Painful is that more than 3 days later no enough efforts from our Government to at least get the bodies of this innocent souls. We're not here to blame one another but I feel the Government of Kenya & Mombasa County should do something to at least show that small care to it's citizens," Bahati posted.
Mariam Kighenda and her four-year-old daughter, Amanda Mutheu whose bodies are yet to be retrieved died after their car slithered from an MV Harambee on Sunday evening as they were coming from their shamba in Kwale County.
The family members had previously expressed their worries based on the speed to retrieve the bodies.
The government has opted to use robots in spotting the bodies since the equipment available can only sustain dives of up to 30 meters deep yet the victims are lying 60m.
