Kisumu National Polytechnic is mourning the sudden death of one of its own, Ben Michael, an ICT student whose dreams were tragically cut short following a fatal road accident along the Katito–Kendu Bay route.

The accident occurred in the Nyakwere area after two PSV matatus collided, leaving four people dead on the spot, including one of the drivers, while 21 others were rushed to hospital for treatment.

Sadly, Ben Michael, who was among those admitted to hospital following the crash, succumbed to his injuries.

We extend our heartfelt condolences to his family, relatives, friends, classmates, and the entire Kisumu National Polytechnic fraternity during this difficult time. May they find strength and comfort as they mourn the loss of a young life full of promise.

As we mourn this tragic loss, we urge all motorists to exercise extra caution on our roads, observe traffic rules, obey speed limits, and avoid reckless driving. Every life matters, and road safety is everyone's responsibility.

Drive carefully. Arrive alive.
