According to information from friends on the ground, at least 25 lives have now been confirmed lost in the devastating bus tragedy in Fogo, Cabo Verde. The number may still rise as rescue and identification efforts continue.
Among those who lost their life was the bus driver, Sr. Djedjinho. Many of the victims were children, our children, our families, our future. π
As someone born in Fogo, this pain reaches home in a way words cannot explain. Behind every number is a life, a family, a mother, a father, siblings, friends, and dreams that were taken far too soon. ππ«
This tragedy must bring immediate support to the families and serious attention to road safety in Fogo and throughout Cabo Verde. A road beside a 30β50-meter drop cannot be left without proper guardrails and protection. Our people deserve safer roads, better infrastructure, and the protection of their lives.
May God receive every soul, including Sr. Djedji...
