Zambia: Emotional funeral for accident victims

Hundreds of people have attended the funeral of 12 of the 24 people who died in a road accident on Saturday in central Zambia.


The victims died when a minibus they were travelling in collided with a big bus in Manyumbi town, some 129km (80 miles) from the capital, Lusaka.

Zambia' first lady Esther Lungu broke into tears during the service held at Kabwe Warriors football stadium.

All the victims were in the minibus.
