Two people were killed and nine passengers injured when a Bukulu coach crashed along the Juba-Nimule road on Saturday. Traffic police are looking into the recurring number of accidents involving buses of the Bakulu bus company. 

The accident reportedly occurred when the driver of the bus, traveling from Juba to Kampala, rammed into a truck that was parked by the roadside. Director of Traffic Police James Biel Rut says there have been several accidents involving the Bakulu bus company in recent months. 

“We are concerned about the company because this is the fourth accident, terrible accident, and know we can’t bear this anymore. I called the manager and told him human life is more expensive than the money and the buses you have."

"Therefore, drivers from 18 to 25 years old do not deserve to driver big vehicles, only from 30 to 40 years old,” said the traffic police director.
