THE Harare Institute of Technology (HIT) is mourning one of their own, a student, who died in an accident at the Mabvuku turn-off last week.
In a statement, the institution’s Vice Chancellor, Professor Engineer Kanhukamwe, announced the death of their student in the accident.
“Rudaviro Zvigerenani, a Part 3 B Tech Forensic Accounting and Auditing student died on Thursday July 25.
“Mourners are gathered at 14432 Damafalls Phase 1.
“Details of funeral arrangements will be announced in due course.
“May her soul rest in peace.”
She is the latest victim to perish at Mabvuku turn-off, which has become a death trap.
Two accidents occurred at the Mabvuku turn-off that day.
Last year, H-Metro launched a campaign tame the Mabvuku turn-off death zone.
The campaign led to the traffic lights being erected at the death trap.
It was inspired by a series of accidents which claimed nine lives and left more than 70 injured last year.
The H-Metro campaign was dubbed the ‘HOW MANY MORE’ campaign, also known as ‘HOMAMORE,’ and it spotlight on the dangerous turn-off.
The campaign was also meant to put pressure on the authorities, especially the City of Harare, to act and find ways of taming the beast.
