Two people travelling in the Isuzu died instantly.
Bunjira and Brenda were initially rushed toRusape General Hospital, before Brenda was transferred the same day toMilton Park Medical Centrein Harare due to the severity of her injuries.
She was placed on life support but succumbed yesterday despite fighting bravely for three days.
The tragedy has devastated not only Bunjira’s family but also the sporting community, where Brenda had become a familiar figure.
She was part of theNetOne Albun Marathon organising team, serving as an administrator, and was often seen alongside Bunjira at official functions.
Harare businessmanAndrew Rusike, who chairs the marathon organising committee and is also Bunjira’s elder brother, confirmed the couple’s plans for marriage. “Brenda was Alois’ fiancée,” Rusike toldH-Metro. “They lived together in Westgate and he had planned to marry her at the end of this year.
She was the administrator of our organising committee. ”
Rusike, one of the first people to arrive at the crash scene, recalled the harrowing moment he pulled Brenda from the wreckage. “I could see that she had suffered injuries on her hands.
When I got her out of the car, the first thing she asked me was whether her hands were still there,” he said, his voice heavy with emotion.
He explained that the group had been on a business trip related to theNetOne Albun Marathon, which they hoped would be recognised as a qualifier for theComrades Marathon.
Police confirmed the accident, saying:“Two people died, while three others were injured, after an Isuzu pickup truck with three passengers on board tried to overtake a bus and collided head-on with an oncoming BMW driven by Alois Bunjira.
Two passengers from the Isuzu vehicle died on the spot. ”
The passing of Brenda has left a deep void in Bunjira’s life and in the marathon organising committee, where she had become a vital presence.
For many close to the couple, her untimely death is not only a personal loss but also a heartbreaking reminder of how suddenly tragedy can strike.
