ITF Mourns Victims of Uganda Bus Crash
The International Transport Workers’ Federation (ITF) expressed shock and sadness at the tragic bus crash in Uganda that claimed over 40 lives.
A collision between two long-distance passenger buses, a lorry, and another vehicle occurred on a major highway north of Kampala on 22 October 2025, killing dozens and injuring many.
“We are devastated by this terrible loss of life,” said ITF General Secretary Stephen Cotton. “Behind most crashes like this are professional drivers working long hours, under enormous pressure, on roads that are often unsafe.
ITF extends condolences to affected families, friends, and colleagues. The tragedy highlights the human cost of unsafe working conditions and inadequate road safety standards.
Drivers deserve safe working conditions for their protection and the safety of everyone on the road.
