Online Desk

Two people died after a motorcycle they were riding collided with a Rimbi Travel and Tours bus en route to Malawi.

The accident occurred on Tuesday afternoon at Mutoko Growth Point along the Harare-Nyamapanda highway.

Police have confirmed attending to the scene of the accident.

“The ZRP confirms a fatal road traffic accident in which two people died when a bus was involved in a head on collision with a motorbike in the morning, on 28/02/23 at the 41 km peg along Harare -Nyamapanda Road,” said national police spokesperson assistant commissioner, Paul Nyathi.

Recently, the bus company’s operating licence was suspended by Government over a speed chase incident between the operator and Zebra Kiss that also led to the death of one person.

However, both operators’ suspensions were later lifted with an instruction that Rimbi Travel and Tours would excuse itself from the same route.

It is yet to be established why the bus operator was plying the same route.
