VIHIGA COUNTY, KENYA – APRIL 27, 2026 In the Sabatia area, on the Lusengel River, a tragic incident occurred that ended with the death of a young man. On a hot day, he went there in a good mood with a group of friends to go swimming. But within moments, he got into serious trouble and was swept away by the strong current.
While he was drowning and fighting for his life, his friends thought he was just joking around and failed to recognize how serious the situation was. They watched him, laughed, and kept recording videos for social media. By the time he disappeared under the water and was carried away by the current, it was already too late for any rescue attempt.
