Six persons reportedly drowned when a passenger boat from Abonnema Wharf to Bakana in Degema Local Government Area of Rivers State, capsized, on Saturday.

Sunday Sun gathered that 25 persons were onboard the boat and the incident occurred before they arrived Bakana, their final destination.

It was also gathered that 19 of the occupants were rescued by local divers, while the rest were feared missing.

Details of the cause of the tragedy could not be ascertained as at the time of filing the report.

But, sources said that the downpour that lasted for several hours, on Saturday, which was experienced across the state, might have affected the sea.

Spokesman of the State Police Command, Nnamdi Omoni, a Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP), confirmed the incident to journalists.

One of the reasons I get scared of sea travel is the time it will take you to get to your destination, you go just dey 2weeks on top water that most times is not stable, imagine plying a Lagos - New york route, imagine the time it will take you to get to new york + the kind animals wey you fit encounter like the blue whale that's atimes bigger than 2 ships all together angry cry

This is why i don't go near any body of water without life jacket.

I manage to join NLNG boat after several hours of midnight prayers because it is covered and i don't get to see the water.

RIP to the dead
