Jubilee secretary general Raphael Tuju was on Wednesday involved in a road accident in Nakuru.

The cabinet secretary without a portfolio was on his way to former President Daniel Moi’s resting place in Kabarak.

Reports indicate that the vehicle he was traveling in with his driver and bodyguard, hit a matatu at Magina area along the busy Nakuru-Nairobi highway.

Moi’s body left Wilson Airstrip at 7.40 am and is headed to his Kabarak home for the final salute. He will be laid to rest next to his wife, Lena.

At least 10 heads of state will be present as Kenya’s second president is accorded full military honour including military musical honours and a 19 gun-salute.
