“I tried to stop the bus but it kept on sliding,” the driver said, blaming the incident to the heavy rains pounding the region.
Kenya Ferry Services officers, Kenya Coast Guard and volunteers managed to remove the bus from the Indian Ocean waters.
No causality was reported from the incident as the driver and the conductor were rescued.
