The eight-year-old girl sustained injuries and was airlifted to hospital.
Limpopo MEC of Health, Dr Phophi Ramathuba has confirmed that the sole survivor of Thursday’s tragic bus accident is in good health. Speaking at a media briefing Ramathuba says the girl underwent a minor procedure, but is well.
“The child who survived, all I can reassure South Africans and Botswana nationals is that our child, it’s in a stable condition. She underwent a minor procedure this morning, I’ll still repeat it’s a minor procedure as part of the injuries that she sustained and our surgeons had to take her to theatre for that. She’s out of theatre apparently and she’s well. She’s in the ward, she’s doing well, her vitals are normal.
Ramathuba has also confirmed that nine of the deceased are identifiable, however, the remaining bodies would have to undergo DNA analysis. “We have received 34 body bags and that doesn’t mean 34 bodies. Its 34 body bags of which nine we can confirm that they are identifiable. So up to so far we can say nine, which we are working with the High Commissioner on the process of identification, but they are identifiable. The remaining 25 will still be subjected to serious processes.
