We call upon any persons that could be missing their relatives to get in touch with Mkushi Police Station or indeed the Officer Commanding Kapiri Mphoshi District.
We also urge motorists to obey traffic rules and regulations in order to ensure the safety of our traveling public. As can be noticed the capacity of the vehicle was grossly overloaded. They should not take advantage of the absence of police officers on the road as Government will not hesitate to bring back road blocks should such abuse of this rare privilege continue to bring such huge losses of human life.
