Seneta Osotsi wa Vihiga ananusurika na ajali ya ndege Wilson Airport

Seneta Godfrey Osotsi wa Vihiga alikuwa miongoni mwa abiria 39 waliokuwepo kwenye ndege iliyotua kwa ghafla katika Uwanja wa Ndege wa Wilson Machi 20, 2026. Abiria wote na wafanyakazi waliondoka bila majeruhi, lakini seneta alikosoa ukosefu wa huduma za dharura. Uchunguzi wa sababu ya tukio unaendelea.

Jioni ya Ijumaa, Machi 20, 2026, ndege iliyokuwa ikitoka Kisumu ilipoteza mwelekeo wakati wa kutua katika Uwanja wa Ndege wa Wilson, na kusababisha tukio la kutua kwa ghafla lililotajwa na mamlaka kama makosa ya njia ya kutua. Ndege hiyo ilibeba abiria 34 na wafanyakazi 5, jumla ya watu 39, wote walipoondoka bila majeruhi, kulingana na Mamlaka ya Viwanja vya Ndege ya Kenya (KAA). KAA ilisema: “Tunathibitisha kuwa abiria wote na wafanyakazi wako salama, bila majeruhi yoyote. Ndege bado iko mahali, na juhudi za kuipata zinaendelea. Shughuli za uwanja wa Wilson zinaendelea kama kawaida.” Seneta Godfrey Osotsi wa Vihiga, mmoja wa abiria, alisimulia tukio hilo: “Namshukuru Mungu kwa ulinzi Wake baada ya kutoka salama kutoka ajali ya ndege Wilson Airport jioni hii. Nilikuwa miongoni mwa abiria 39 kwenye safari hiyo.” Alisifu ustadi wa rubani, akisema rubani alionyesha ustadi na akili ya haraka katika kudhibiti ndege na kuipeleka nje ya njia ya kutua, akizuia matokeo mabaya zaidi na moto unaowezekana. Hata hivyo, Osotsi alielezea wasiwasi kuhusu majibu ya dharura ya uwanja: “Ni jambo lenye kusumbua sana kwamba licha ya juhudi za rubani kuokoa maisha, hakukuwa na operesheni za haraka za uokoaji kutoka uongozi wa uwanja. Hakukuwa na ambulensi mahali.” Tukio hili lilitokea siku chache tu baada ya Osotsi kuomba taarifa katika Seneti kuhusu masuala ya usalama na miundombinu inayozorota katika Uwanja wa Wilson. “Matukio ya leo yameimarisha wasiwasi wale. Njia ya kutua ilikuwa na mafuriko, na mfumo wa taa haukufanya kazi vizuri,” alisema. KAA imesema uchunguzi unaendelea.
