Four students of Rapogi Secondary School were on Friday reported dead and several others injured.
This is after their bus was involved in a road accident.
Reports indicate the school bus crashed near Kombewa, Seme Sub-county along Bondo-Kisumu Road.
Taking to social media, a section of Kenyans mourned the students while others criticised the former Education CS Fred Matiang'i over the painting of school buses to a certain colour which they said has not helped.
Here are some reactions from twitter;
A user identified as Bravons Oriko said, "The so called Matiang'i.....why school buses YELLOW??? Now you are happy that Rapogi Boys have involved in an accident&&&&.......We are on your neck...."
Another one Noreen Mcdall wrote, "Quick recovery to the students of Rapogi secondary school, seme, Kisumu county, poleni sana..."
Kala Cyprian noted, "Yellow coloring on the buses was supposed to make them safer. What is your two cents on the Rapogi Secondary school incident? Matiang’i:"
