The exact number of pupils injured remains unclear, as police and emergency services continue to compile details from the scene. Additionally, identities of the deceased have not yet been released, pending notification of their families.
In conclusion, we call upon the government to renovate the road and also to inspect drivers; this will help to reduce the number of accidents on roads.
