No fewer than 24 people have died after a ghastly motor accident in Southern Zambia.
The accident which occurred on Saturday, involved a bus that was carrying churchgoers and heading for a religious service.
The bus was said to have rammed into a truck in southern Zambia which led to the death of the 24 victims.
The crash left 12 others seriously injured, including the driver.
“The deceased have… been identified as 23 female adults and one male adult, while those injured are eight males and four females,” the police spokesman Danny Mwale said in a statement.
Deadly traffic accidents are common in Zambia, due to the poor state of roads and reckless driving.
