Kasyoki lost his life in a tragic crash on Monday, September 22.
His Ford Ranger collided with a trailer near the Primarosa area in Athi River, causing the container on the trailer to fall and crush his vehicle.
A passenger, James Mwangangi Mulatya, was injured and taken to Shalom Community Hospital, while the trailer driver escaped unhurt.
His death prompted Annastacia Muthini Muendo, a politician, to attribute the tragedy to the poor state of the Nairobi–Mombasa Highway.
Annastacia urged KeNHA to repair the road, install warning signs, and take action to prevent further loss of life.
Was Prezzo injured in accident?
On Friday, October 10, Prezzo shared a photo of his wrecked van along Mombasa Road.
The distinct white van features numerous images of his mega home in Ukambani and is emblazoned with his name.
The image showed that the van had a huge dent at the front. The windscreen was cracked, and the front bumper crumpled.
However, he did not initially offer insights into what had transpired, leading to speculation about what had happened.
Prezzo was prompted to go live on his Facebook page to set the record straight and update fans on his condition.
“I have received many calls, and I am grateful for the support. I am currently at the Embakasi Police Station.”
He asserted that both he and his driver were okay and escaped the accident unscathed.
“We are waiting for the OCS to give us cash bail, then take the vehicle for repairs.”
What happened during Prezzo’s accident?
Prezzo admitted that the impact was significant and recounted what happened.
“The accident happened along Mombasa Road near Jomo Kenyatta International Airport. The other driver was turning dangerously, and we rammed into them.”
He noted that the other vehicle sustained minor damage to the boot. Prezzo further dismissed claims that he was intoxicated at the time of the accident.
He noted that the damage to the vehicle was a non-issue because nobody was injured. He further warned drivers against driving while drunk.
“We will end this year safe and sound. The devil has been defeated in the name of Jesus,” he declared.
Kenyans reacted to news of the accident by writing:
Mutheu Mercy:
“Glory to God.”
Joseh De Senjoh:
“God is good.”
Moses Mulewa Munyoki:
“God is in control.”
Richie Kennedy:
“God is good all the time.”
