Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) national spokesperson Assistant Commissioner Paul Nyathi confirmed the accident to ZBC News.
Asst Comm Nyathi said the ZCC congregants were travelling to an Easter church gathering when the bus veered off the road and plunged into a gorge, killing 29 people on the spot.
Three of the deceased later passed away as they were being ferried to the hospital. The injured were admitted at Chipinge District Hospital.
Asst Comm Nyathi said police have established that the bus belongs to Charles Lwanga Secondary School and was overloaded.
