Newly-Posted Head Teacher Dies In Freak Motorbike Accident On Reporting Day

A newly-posted primary school head teacher in Migori County, died in a motorbike accident involving a truck, just hours after reporting to his new station.

The family of Ronald Oyombe, aged 48 years, is in deep mourning after a day that was supposed to bring smiles to their faces, brought tears, and pain.

According to witnesses, the deceased teacher died on the spot after a loaded truck rammed his motorbike at night.

The family spokesman, Richard Oyombe, told our reporter that the accident happened along the infamous Conner S – a very dangerous stretch according to the residents.

Mr. Oyombe who hails from Obolo, Muhuru Ward, was returning home from school when the accident happened.

He had just reported at the Gogo primary school as the Head of institution (HOI) – on the fateful day.

“The truck hit him hard on the head and broke his right leg, killing him on the spot. According to witnesses, the truck only had one headlight working, and it is possible he may have mistook it for a motorbike,” said Richard.

According to witnesses, the truck which was carrying traders returning from the nearby  Market, did not stop immediately after the accident – prompting residents to block it with stones.
