Wow heartbreaking... God grant them eternal rest

This is why I fear water.
I have 2 probs with it,
1. I can't swim
2. I don't know what lurks beneath it.

Sad news... RIP to the dead

So sad

So sad but a place is guaranteed for them in heaven

Not again!!!

Truth be told ehn... I dnt go out on festive seasons because of incidents like dis!!

RIP

I knew something like this would happen today... That is why am indoor, me no like stress... RIP to the dead

May we never go where your grace will not be sufficient for us Oh God.

We cover our going out and coming in with the Blood of your Son Jesus Christ!

Rip to the dead.

I will soon join you guys!

Damn. A day meant for celebration turned out to be a day of mourning. There are some happenings that God should try to protect for us. This is not just meant to happen. God why?
Rip...

Inna lillah wa inna ilaih raj'un

So sad, R.I.P to the dead, quickly recovery to the injured ones.

May God grant the deads family members the fortitude to bear the loss

water ehn

This is bad

When people keep postponing the plan to surrender their lives to their make it, it's a huge mistake and quite risky. Now look at it now, they never plan they were gonna end today. No more room for grace and pardon.


Next is judgement.
And ETERNITY FOLLOWS

Typing RIP now makes no sense cos that will change nothing. The best is acknowledging that Jesus is the savior of ur soul while alive.

So sad!

Accidents happen all the time & at anytime.

May we never be caught before our time.

RIP to to lost souls.

Dayuuummmnnn!

For about 2 years, I was on the waterways of Southern Bayelsa, traveling to and fro offshore locations.

I felt uneasy getting onto a boat to a nearby village (where refining was done by the villagers which negatively impacted the region and their water quality), I declined going there that day and stayed back. After about 30 minutes, I received information that the boat hit a large impediment buried under the waterways and capsized. Everyone was safe but it was tough rescuing those who couldn't swim.

I couldn't swim back then and who knows what could have happened.


Water Travelling could have been the best compared to others if safety measures are put in place. Similar to air transportation, once an accident happens, chances of survival are slim

Travelling on Speed boats is now more dangerous than ever, tidal waves comes with high pressures and can sweep a boat off its feet if it doesn't have a good grip, or mechanical stability from the attached engine. I always prefer a double engine speed boat with grips for passengers to hold on to.


Heartfelt condolences to the families of the bereaved.

May God keep us all.

God

May their souls rest in peace o. That thing that will make me use boat as a means of transportation in Nigeria, dem never born am.
