Nyali Member of Parliament (MP) Mohamed Ali has called on motorists to exercise extreme caution on the roads following a tragic accident involving the family of Capt. William K. Ruto, the Chief Executive Officer of the Kenya Ports Authority (KPA).
In a heartfelt message issued via his official X account on Saturday, April 4, 2026, the Nyali MP expressed deep sorrow over the incident, which claimed the life of the CEO’s daughter and left Capt. Ruto and other family members injured.
“Heartbroken by the tragic road accident that claimed the life of the daughter of KPA’s Captain William K. Ruto, and injured him and his family,” Mohamed Ali said.
He offered prayers for strength and healing to the bereaved family, urging them to remain steadfast during what he described as a moment of immense grief.
“I pray that God grants him and the family a swift recovery and holds them in strength and faith as they navigate this immense grief,” he added.
Beyond the condolence message, the legislator used the moment to remind Kenyans of the importance of road safety, especially during the busy holiday period.
“To all road users, let us exercise extreme caution and vigilance during this holiday break,” he urged.
His remarks come amid increased travel across the country, a period often marked by a spike in road accidents due to high traffic volumes and, in some cases, reckless driving.
The accident, confirmed by KPA earlier, occurred on Friday evening as Capt. Ruto was traveling with his family. While he and other family members survived and are reported to be in stable condition, the loss of his daughter has drawn widespread sympathy from leaders and the public.
Mohamed Ali joins a growing list of leaders and Kenyans who have expressed condolences to the KPA boss and his family, with many also using the tragedy to emphasize the need for safer roads.
