“The owner of the bus was apprehended by police on Thursday. The situation is much more calm here. They arrested him yesterday. Everyone is very happy here,” Brave said.

Meanwhile, the office of Social Development in the rainbow nation has provided plane tickets to parents of the twins who were delivered on board the broken down bus.

The couple will stay in South Africa for three months before flying back to Malawi.
