Mkumbo added investigators were still trying
to determine exactly what
caused the bus to leave the
road.
"We don't know if the

there was a mechanical
defect," he said.
The bus

on board were also killed in the crash.
Two
of the students survived
but were critically

school students, aged
between 12 and 13 years old, were on their
