Mr Fredrick Ojwang, an eyewitness who was driving behind the bus, blamed the accident on a tyre burst that forced the vehicle to veer off the road, rolling several times and bursting into flames.
“We broke the door of the bus and started pulling out passengers. They were badly burnt and by the time we evacuated the last person, one had already died,” said Mr Ojwang.
The coffin fell on the side of the road before the vehicle burst into flames.
Witnesses said the bus driver was trying to avoid a head-collision with an oncoming vehicle.
