President Mnangagwa has declared the tragic Beitbridge accident, which claimed 24 lives, a national disaster. He announced that the victims would receive State-assisted burials.
Expressing his deep sorrow, the President stated, “The death of 24 Zimbabweans in a head-on collision between an Urban Connect bus and a commercial haulage truck along the Beitbridge-Masvingo Highway this morning left me horrified and heartbroken. Fellow Zimbabweans, our nation does not deserve this at all, let alone experiencing such a bloody incident at the beginning of the year. We have to do all that is possible to curb this unjustified loss of life.”
President Mnangagwa appealed to motorists to exercise extreme caution on the roads for the safety of all road users. He reminded government authorities responsible for road safety to work tirelessly and use all available legal means to reduce and eventually eliminate such incidents.
He announced, “Government has therefore declared this incident a national disaster and will accord victims of this horrendous crash State-assisted burial. As I express my deepest, heartfelt condolences to families and relatives who have lost their loved ones in this horrific crash, I also heartily and prayerfully reach out to all those injured and hospitalised, wishing them a speedy recovery.”
