"There are no injuries and officers are on the ground," Kimathi told a local media house.
Police officers and firefighters are at the scene to contain the situation. At 8 am, the firefighter was still fighting the fire.
Passengers who were evacuated safely were standing along the road in shock as they count losses and at the same time thank God for a narrow escape.
Police officers were also in action pushing away locals who had gathered at the scene.
