Well-known Zimbabwean musician Brian Samaita was recently involved in a severe car accident in Mutare. The incident occurred late on Saturday night as Samaita was driving along Christmas Pass road.
According to Samaita, a Toyota Corolla travelling in the opposite direction failed to brake in time and collided with a Volkswagen vehicle ahead of it. This caused the Toyota to swerve violently into Samaita’s lane. Despite efforts to avoid the crash, his Mercedes sedan was struck head-on by the out-of-control Toyota.
Although shaken up, Samaita considers himself fortunate to have survived the collision. He received minor head injuries and is currently recuperating at a private hospital. Photos of his badly damaged Mercedes illustrate just how serious the crash was.
Wishing him a full and speedy recovery.
