Eight years ago, tragedy struck Tanzania when a school bus from Lucky Vincent Primary School crashed in Karatu, killing 32 students, two teachers, and a driver. The children were en route to a mock exam — a proud moment turned devastating. The accident shocked the nation, prompting mourning and calls for better road
safety. Amid sorrow, three students survived and recovered abroad, symbolizing hope. Though some reforms followed, challenges remain. Today, flowers still appear at the memorial. The victims are remembered not just for how they died, but for who they were — bright, young lives full of promise and dreams.
