kjhova:What's the number one duty of every state governor? Any governor who has failed in discharging this is a failure. What's bad or wrong if the governor ban, section and prosecute the erring company? If you dig deep, it's either the owner is a close ally of Mr governor or his relation. There's no single quarter of a year such unfortunate incident doesn't happen. Check it. They won't act until one of their family members fall victim. 1 Like |

Eriokanmi: While your concerns are valid, your claims above are guesswork unless you wanna back them up. |

NwaNimo1: Ogbeni why not keep quiet or simply ask questions rather you than jump to conclusion. All the passengers on the ferrys that ply Marina Ikorodu water way all wear life jackets , why do you think there was no death except the one who died on the way to the hospital who I'm sure must have suffered shock or an injury but NOT drowning You think it was all those NIWA , LASWA and boat operators that were responsible for saving the passengers, fa fa fa foul. It was their life jackets, those other bodies just brought boats with which the passengers were later evacuated |

fergie001:The government should pay attention to our waterways and give strict instructions on how the boat companies operate, to ensure such safety of movements in waterways, kudos to the response team for a job well done, with my understanding they successfully rescued the 17 passengers on the boat only that one died on the way to hospital , RIP to the dead |

Eriokanmi:I agree with you, the only time our government act swiftly is when the situation affects their close relationship or allies. |

laswa uses local boat operators for their operation. they didn't show enough seriousness and commitment. they were building terminals but they refused to invest in modern day ferry |

Stop this lies..most of the boats are death traps. If you go to ikorodu ferry terminus.. you will weep and � pray before entering that jargons they call boat. |

People think Safety is expensive, but it prevents us from paying the ultimate price. That's the truth about safety.

I read thru numerous comments here and they are grossly assumptive. It's an exposition of how we rationalise judgement without facts in this part of the world. I plied that route last week Tuesday! Thank God for his protection. Little info: life vest is always enforced by officials to on board for that water route. I have always wondered if the vest are functional tho they look so but I don't think life vests are made to last forever without routine check if they are still efficient. The sailors and their engine operators use to form strong people atimes. |

UTILITYMAY:You don't need to know how to swim to use a life jacket! Just put the darn thing on! You sef, u clearly don't know what a life jacket is... It keeps you afloat in the water until help comes. How do u get on a rickety boat on the ocean without a life jacket? We take too many risks in this country. Unnecessary risks! I'd rather grow old in traffic than enter a boat without life jacket. |

kjhova: I never said life jackets does not matter, only if we could see a picture of the accident, and you'll see they are all on life jackets. |
Re: Passenger Boat Capsizes In Lagos, One Dies, 16 Rescued by UTILITYMAY(m): 7:14am On Sep 28, 2021 |
Mom007: You don't need to assume that I don't know what life jacket is. I have used it more than 100 times on that same water line where the accident occur! There is no time they don't give life jackets, that's my point. |
Re: Passenger Boat Capsizes In Lagos, One Dies, 16 Rescued by UTILITYMAY(m): 7:17am On Sep 28, 2021 |
falcon01: Because you assume I don't know how it works. If use boats, just pray you are not a victim of a capsized boat. |

Can life jacket prevent ship from capsizing ? Why everyone shouting life jacket ? As if they all lost their lives ,17 passengers , one died on the way to hospital . How now people talking about non use of life jackets ? We need sense in this country , common to read and understand is wahala ! |

Silva79:The life jackets are not fake, the 16 that were rescued are those on life jackets. Remember even when you are on life jacket, you still need someone to rescue you. So, do not confuse the word rescue to lack of Personal protective equipment. PPE. Be guided. 1 Like |

winterlover:I ply the route on daily, no boat will move if a single passenger is not on life jacket. The issue is, most of the life jackets are 100 years old and useless if any accident should occur. If you can't swim, it's better you take a ferry... At least they all have new life jackets. |
