Church leaders from different denominations have agreed to conduct a prayer walk along the Thika-Garissa highway in Yatta sub-county, Machakos county on Friday March 18, 2016.
Speaking to Pastor Jamee Muli of Zion's gate church in Kithimani ward, he stated that the recurrent accidents along the highway have been witnessed mainly on the Kithimani-Matuu road.
"As church leaders, we are vessels of God and we have noticed accidents have been on the increase in this area. For instance from January there has been more than 20 accidents in between Kithimani and Matuu," said Muli.
"We have communicated with all the pastors, fathers and sheikhs from all the wards in Yatta sub-county. We will meet at 2:15pm at Ndalani Catholic church to pick the program and walk towards Sofia praying and later towards Kithimani and pray about the accidents, " he added.
The religious leaders have therefore invited members of the public to participate in the walk.
