    "content": " Hon. Speaker, pursuant to Standing Order 43, I wish to make a statement concerning transportation safety of our children while in school. First, before I make my statement, I wish, on my own behalf and the people of West Mugirango Constituency, to convey heartfelt condolences to the families and people of Mwingi Central Constituency following the untimely death of 10 pupils from St. Gabriel Primary School who perished following an accident involving the school bus they were traveling in from Mombasa where they had gone for a study tour. The school bus was involved in a head-on collision with a lorry at Kanginga Bridge about 1 kilometre from Mwingi Town on the Thika- Garissa Road at night. It is worrying that there have been many accidents reported on our roads countrywide involving school buses, where we have lost many young promising lives. On 14th June 2018, a bus belonging to Starshine Blue School was involved in an accident at Karai on the Naivasha- Nakuru Highway. Four members of staff and several students were injured. On Friday 23rd February this year, one student from Rapogi Mixed Secondary School died while 19 others The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
