A major traffic disruption occurred Monday morning on the Nairobi-Nakuru Highway after a Guardian Angel bus caught fire at Soysambu.

The blaze caused a heavy snarl-up on the Nairobi-bound lane, leaving many motorists stranded in long queues.

Photos and videos seen by Kenyans.co.ke showed the bus engulfed in flames, with thick black smoke billowing into the air as bystanders and motorists watched in shock.

The cause of the fire remains unclear, with investigations expected once the scene is secured.
