Kisumu, Kenya, December 19 – Residents of Agoro Village in Kajulu, Kisumu County, are grieving after a devastating accident claimed the lives of a grandfather and his two young grandsons.

Community members described the incident as heartbreaking, noting that the family was well-known in the area. The tragedy has cast a somber mood over the village, with many gathering to console the bereaved relatives and offer support.
