SPEAKER SHONGWE SENDS CONDOLENCE TO THE BEREAVED FAMILIES FOLLOWING
ANOTHER ROAD ACCIDENT IN THE PROVINCE
The Mpumalanga
Province once again robbed of its
people - the family bread-winners, brothers, sisters, mothers and fathers these
were the words of the Speaker of the Mpumalanga Provincial Legislature Mrs Thandi
Shongwe as the province shaken by another deadly accident this morning near White River .
News report indicates that a taxi
carrying people along plaston road failed to stop at the intersection with the
R40 which caused the minibus taxi to overturn killing seven people. The death
toll has since increased to nine following the passing on of two people who
rushed to hospital with critical injuries.
“As the Mpumalanga Legislature we
send our heartfelt condolences to the grieving families following another
devastating accident in our province.” Mrs Thandi Shongwe
Speaker Shongwe called upon the
people of the province to pray for the province and for the end to the carnage
on our roads.
She said, “the loss of one life is
enough to cause devastation but when so many lives are lost it becomes
difficult for the entire people of the province.”
“Our people are not supposed to die
when going to work in the morning or when returning home in the afternoon but these
things happens even though government is doing much to ensure safety on our
roads.
