    "content": "Another question we may ask ourselves is: Where are the coast guards? How can there be no speedboats at hand with emergency services at the channel? You remember just the other day, His Excellency the President launched the Kenya Coast Guard (KCG) and one cardinal function of it is to provide public safety for the people crossing the ferry channel. Twenty Five years ago, we witnessed the Mtongwe Ferry disaster where 272 men and women perished along the Kilindini Channel. That was MV Mtongwe bound for Mombasa Island that capsized just 40 metres from the mainland, killing 272 of the 400 people on board. Following that disaster, it was reported that the capacity for the ferry boat was only 300. Up to date, some families of those who perished in the Mtongwe tragedy have never been compensated."
