On the night of September 28, 2026, Kitutu Masaba Member of Parliament Clive Gisairo was traveling to Nairobi from his constituency when his vehicle was hit from behind by a speeding Isuzu D-Max. The Interior Ministry-registered vehicle, with license plate KDX 961T, lost control and rolled onto the road shoulder. Gisairo's driver managed to safely bring their vehicle to a stop, despite losing the rear right tire.

According to Gisairo, he and his driver were assisted by the occupants of the other vehicle, who were later taken away in a GK vehicle, GKB 787J, before traffic police procedures at the scene could be completed. The MP reported the incident to the relevant agencies and cooperated with investigations. The Ministry of Interior has identified the two occupants and other ministry officers who took them away from the scene.

Gisairo expressed gratitude that he and his team are safe, although they suffered muscle pulls. He believes the matter will be fully addressed and that any officers found culpable will be disciplined in accordance with the law. The MP demanded investigations into the incident, raising concerns about the Interior Ministry's vehicle and its occupants.

The accident has raised concerns about road safety and the behavior of government vehicles. As a representative of the people, Gisairo's involvement in such an incident has sparked interest in the circumstances surrounding the accident. The Interior Ministry has yet to comment on the incident.

An investigation into the incident is ongoing, with the relevant agencies working to determine the cause of the accident and the actions of the occupants of the Interior Ministry vehicle. Gisairo's report and cooperation with the investigations are expected to shed more light on the incident.

The incident has sparked reactions from Gisairo's supporters, who have expressed concern for their leader's safety. Gisairo thanked his supporters for their overwhelming concern and promised to keep them updated on the progress of the investigations.

Key to the investigations will be determining the responsibility of the Interior Ministry vehicle and its occupants in the accident.
