John Kinyua, the milk vendor whose photos of despair after a motorbike accident went viral, is now basking in the sunny shores of Mombasa.

Kinyua's impromptu getaway is courtesy of a generous gesture from Expeditions Maasai Safaris.

Kinyua flown to Mombasa to soothe his heart

The 3-day fully paid vacation is a delightful turn of events following a challenging incident that captured the public's sympathy.

Kinyua made headlines when images emerged of him visibly distressed after his motorbike skidded in the mud and spilled his entire milk supply.

Viral photos spread across social media showing the rider lost in thought as he counted his losses.

The latest photos and videos from the vacation show Kinyua enjoying the picturesque coastal city.

A wide smile had replaced the anguish captured in the earlier images, a change in demeanour that underscores the impact of the thoughtful gesture.

Value of milk spilled during Kinyua's motorbike accident

In an earlier interview, Kinyua told TUKO.co.ke that he was carrying milk valued at KSh 55 per litre.

With 182 litres spilled during the accident, the total loss amounted to KSh 10,010.

The sight of his shattered dreams, added to the revelation that the loss would be deducted from his monthly earnings, touched many.

In a heartfelt move, Expeditions Maasai Safaris offered Kinyua a getaway to Mombasa, a gesture aimed at lifting his spirits after the unfortunate incident.

"Men go through a lot in pursuit of a better life. We all have good and bad days in the office. This is an example of a bad day. We understand him," read a statement by the travel company.

Good Samaritan fixes Embu road

In the wake of Kinyua's tragic loss, a kind-hearted man took it upon himself to shoulder the burden of his community and repair the road where the accident occurred.

Kenjava Wakagoto Mwaniki spent KSh 218,000 pouring murram on the muddy road, which had become a source of bad memories and ridicule.

Wakagoto explained that the road had been gravelled with premium eagle quarry murram, a high-quality product priced at KSh 500 per tonne.
