The late Allan Mwenda, the owner of the BMW involved in the fatal Mbagathi Way crash that ended in a fiery explosion, has been laid to rest in an emotional ceremony attended by family, friends, colleagues, and political leaders.
Allan was among the victims who lost their lives after the BMW reportedly crashed into a footbridge along Mbagathi Way before bursting into flames following a night out in Nairobi West.
Mourners gathered to pay their final respects, remembering Allan as a devoted family man and a committed public servant whose life was cut short at the age of 38.
Until his death, Allan served as a Senior Monitoring and Evaluation Officer at the National Oil Corporation of Kenya, where colleagues described him as a hardworking and dedicated professional.
He is survived by his wife and three children, who now face the difficult task of moving forward without their husband and father.
His death has left a deep void among his family, friends, and colleagues, many of whom attended the burial to celebrate his life and offer support to the grieving family.
Photos from the burial ceremony show emotional scenes as loved ones bid farewell to Allan, whose tragic death has continued to spark conversations about road safety and the dangers associated with reckless driving and driving after consuming alcohol.
The Mbagathi Way crash remains one of the most devastating road accidents in recent weeks.
