The families continue to heal slowly, step by step, carrying love, grief, and remembrance with them. Their courage stands as a symbol of hope for all who have experienced loss.
As Tanzania marks eight years since the tragedy, the message remains solemn yet heartfelt: We will never forget.
The legacy of the children lives on — in their families, their communities, and in the hearts of everyone who remembers that fateful day. Their dreams were cut short, but their memory continues to inspire efforts toward safer roads, better school transport, and stronger protection for all children.
May their spirits rest in peace, and may the lessons learned from this tragedy help prevent future heartbreak.
