ANC Limpopo visits families of January 8 bus crash victims
The leadership of the ANC in Limpopo has visited the families of fellow party members who died in a bus crash on Saturday.
The bus, carrying ANC members from the Molemole sub-region, was travelling to the party's 112th anniversary celebration at Mbombela stadium in Mpumalanga on Saturday.
Their bus was involved in an accident on the R71 at the Makgoebaskloof outside Tzaneen.
Preliminary reports from the Provincial Department of Transport and Community indicate that three buses followed each other when the third bus hit the second one from behind and overturned into a gorge.
Five people were confirmed dead, while several others sustained injuries and are receiving medical attention at various hospitals in the province.
The ANC delegation visited the injured at Letaba Hospital, Van Velden Hospital, Kgapane Hospital, Mankweng Hospital, and Botlokwa Hospital to extend sympathies and convey the ANC's well wishes.
"During this challenging time, the ANC expresses sincere hopes for the speedy recovery of the injured and remains committed to supporting them through this difficult period," said provincial secretary Reuben Madadzhe.
