Starehe MP Charles Jaguar involved in a Road Accident in Juja

Starehe Member of Parliament Charles Njagua, well known as Jaguar has been involved in a road crash.

The first-time MP escaped unhurt from the accident that occurred along Kenyatta Road in Juja, Kiambu County on Sunday.

His aides, who included a security officer sustained injuries, one of them critical. They were rushed to hospital for treatment.

Jaguar said the accident happened when his car rammed into another vehicle heading in the same direction.

“An accident which had occurred earlier on Kenyatta road, made curious motorists stop to have a glance at a Toyota Isis which had veered off the road and rolled several times. When the motorists were trying to catch that spectacle, they consequently ‘parked’ wrongly on the road, it is then that one vehicle rammed into another, and another rammed into the one in front. Just like the cars ahead, my vehicle, a Mercedes Kompressor, which had my bodyguards on board also rammed into a car which was in front of it, reducing it (Mercedes) to a mangled wreck,” MP Jaguar told eDaily.

“One of my bodyguards was seriously injured in the accident, the other one sustained minor arm injuries. The driver is in bad shape. We rushed them to Thika Level Five Hospital, but the admission and treatment process was delaying, I thus decided to call an ambulance and rush them to Kenyatta National Hospital for emergency treatment,” said Jaguar.

Jaguar was coming from his rural home in Nyeri after a one day visit.

This is the second accident the youthful MP has been involved in this year. In March, a Range Rover Sport vehicle belonging to Jaguar hit and killed two people, a motorcyclist and his passenger at Rukanga area along the Sagana- Makutano road in Kirinyaga County. There was a controversy in who between Jaguar and a woman in the same car was driving it.

While eye witnesses said the woman was the one driving at the time of the accident, other reports suggested it was the musician on the steering.
