President Museveni has consequently directed the Chief of Defence Forces to airlift the critically injured to Mulago national referral hospital for further treatment.

Some of the injured students being carried away from the accident scene.

While it may be odd to hear that students travel in a tipper truck, most government funded secondary schools in the West Nile region do not have school buses to transport students to and from different places.

During functions that require movement, students are usually transported in either lorries or pick up trucks that are readily available for hire.

A few schools have been able to procure buses following the intervention of the old students and parents.
