In a tragic incident in the early hours of Friday, September 6, 2024, a Hyundai Aero Town minibus belonging to Infix Wood Limited, carrying about 50 workers, collided with a timber truck on the Mim-Goaso road.
The crash resulted in the deaths of eight individuals and injuries to 42 others.

Emergency services were promptly dispatched to the scene, and the injured were initially transported to Goaso Municipal Hospital.
This devastating accident has left the community in mourning, as families grapple with the loss of their loved ones and pray for the recovery of the injured.
