The accident, still unexplained, occurred on national road 1, near the village of Mbuba, in the territory of Madimba, 120 km west of Kinshasa. According to civil society sources, the vehicle was heading towards the Congolese capital and exploded near a small market.
A tanker had exploded after a collision at the same location in October 2018, killing more than 50 people.
No further toll was available early Thursday morning.
“It is more than time to take drastic and courageous measures to strengthen the regulation of transport, especially that of flammable products, to put an end to this cycle of disasters. The RN1 should not be a graveyard,” the governor commented in his tweet. العاب روليت
