KENYA ACTS ON ROAD CARNAGE

KENYAN President Daniel arap Moi has ordered all passenger vehicles to use manifests and timetables in the wake of a weekend bus accident here that left at least 35 dead. “I decree that the police must double the intensity of vehicle inspections to reduce carnage on the roads,” Moi said. It is not yet known how many bodies are still missing because neither bus had a manifest. – AFP
