They say Water No Get Enemy, I am tempted to doubt this statement because of the number of lives taken by water regularly.

But then I am tempted to ask, dont we use life vests in Nigeria?

Life jackets can help.they help you keep afloat , so you don't go under water. If you can't swim, it will suspend you above water

Those life jackets don't work at all. Remembered using it last year

LET THE GOVERNMENT INTERVENE IN WATERWAYS TRANSPORTATION
Re: Graphic Photos From The Boat Mishap In Lagos This Morning by nenergy(m): 8:36pm On Jan 30, 2016
This why i refer open boats, with covered boats...during a boat accident life jacket can become a "death jacket". The boat sinks and you are trapped because you float inside.

the life jacket are not good. I doubt if it can work. I was once a victim of terrible storm on this same route.
Govt. got to do something to regulate.

Oh!My Lord. These people have relations o! I can't even imagine the pain they are going through now. I still can't understand why some people endanger themselves, no life jackets and they still enter a boat? God give us wisdom that will save us from irreversible mistakes this year.

Don't just blame the government, can't the passengers insist on wearing life jacket or even get one in the transport company does not provide.

[size=16pt]Incident like this is why Amaechi should not call for the scrapping of the National Maritime University at Okerenkoko, Delta state.

A university that will train future manpower for the marine sector of our economy.[/size]

The government should insists on original life jackets not the rabbish they handover to passengers

In this country there isn't much value for human life unless they are those of yourself or close relative

See as people dey hype the thing. *life jacket*. Who told you its life jacket? Abi no be that thing me dey wear almost everyday? I'm very sure that thing cannot save life, except for the original ones; which you can hardly see with these people. The ones they give us right here at Ibasa are not original, some of them are torn and very dirty. I always have it put on whenever I'm on the boat, but God's protection is what I always pray for. RIP to the dead.
