Controversial self-styled preacher Gilbert Deya who claimed he could help infertile couples conceive “miracle babies” through prayer, is dead following an accident in Kisumu.
Deya died following a road accident involving his car and a trailer along Bondo-Kisumu Road on Tuesday evening.
His salon car was badly damaged in the accident.
Deya was among the victims of the tragic accident that occurred at Namba Kapiyo, along the Kisumu-Bondo road near Holo.
According to police, a bus belonging to Moi University and a Toyota Fortuner belonging to the Siaya County Government were travelling from Bondo towards Kisian, while the televangelist’s Toyota Noah was heading in the opposite direction.
Nyanza Regional Traffic Enforcement Officer Peter Maina said the driver of the Toyota Noah lost control of the vehicle and hit the oncoming bus.
“While trying to avoid a head-on collision with other vehicles, the bus veered off the road and landed on its side,” said Maina.
Following the accident, at least 15 Moi University students, who were on an educational tour in Bondo, sustained serious injuries and were referred to the Jaramogi Oginga Odinga Teaching and Reterral Hospital in Kisumu for specialised treatment.
Thirteen others escaped with minor injuries and were taken to the Kombewa Sub-County Hospital in Seme.
