Civil protection authority director Abdel Aziz Bio Djibril confirmed six people remain missing after the bus fell from a bridge into the Oueme river between Saturday and Sunday night.
“On the first day, twenty-seven bodies were fished out, and on the second day, ten bodies, which makes a total of thirty-seven bodies fished out,“ said Bio Djibril.
The STM company bus departed from neighbouring Togo’s capital Lome carrying fifty-two passengers.
“There are many Nigeriens among the passengers, but also Beninese and likely other foreign nationals,“ said Bio Djibril.
Passengers travelling to Niger’s capital Niamey typically disembark at Malanville and cross the border undetected to continue their journey. – AFP
