Tragic news in Mbanza Ngungu: young students from Kongo University lose their lives in a road accident
A tragedy recently struck Mbanza Ngungu, a peaceful town in the Kongo Central province of the Democratic Republic of Congo. Two promising students from Kongo University lost their lives in a tragic road accident, leaving behind a university community in mourning.
The accident occurred on the Luvaka road, where a motorbike driver was transporting the two students. Unfortunately, a dump truck carrying sand unexpectedly reversed, trapping the motorbike and its young passengers under its wheels. This sad collision claimed the lives of the two students and the motorbike driver, plunging their families, friends and colleagues into deep sadness.
Faced with this senseless loss, students of Kongo University expressed their anger by burning the dumpster responsible for this tragedy on the Luvaka road, a symbol of their indignation at an injustice that could have been avoided. This reaction testifies to the unity and solidarity that characterizes the student community in such circumstances, but also underlines the need for the authorities to strengthen safety measures on the roads to prevent such accidents in the future.
The bodies of the victims were transported to the Nsona Nkulu morgue, where relatives came to pay their last respects. These young students full of life and ambitions were cruelly torn from those who loved them, leaving a huge void in the hearts of those around them and the entire university community.
In this dark period, it is essential to remember the fragility of life and to redouble our vigilance on the roads to avoid new tragedies. Every life lost in a road accident is an avoidable tragedy, and it is our collective duty to ensure the safety and well-being of everyone on our roads.
May the memory of these young students who have passed away rest in peace, and may their example remind us of the importance of caution and mutual respect on the roads, so that such tragedies never happen again.
