It took more than 48 hours for this statement to be released. Was something being cooked up?

Many contradictory claims.

1.
If jackets were freely available and Junior Pope and some other passengers of the boat rejected the jackets, why did AGN suspend Adamma?

2.
TC said marine police said, "You people refused to come and hire jackets from us". But you now claim jackets were freely available. So, even the other dead victims and the missing ones rejected the jackets?

3.
TC never said anybody provided free jackets and anybody rejected the jackets. Consider his claim about the marine police saying the passenges refused to hire jackets. I suspect a connivance by the police and the movie producers against TC. Recall that the TC said the police wanted to take him to a police station.

4.
I earlier saw a post on this same Nairaland. In the post, the boat driver claims that Junior Pope refused to pay for a life jacket. One says free jackets were provided while another one says Junior Pope refused to pay for a jacket. Think about it.

5.
According to TC, the boat driver who was not concentrating on the boat movement was trying to show his face on video when the boat hit another boat. No other person has claimed another boat was hit. The same TC is accused of standing. If TC was standing, did anyone confront him and what was his response? I don't believe the accusation against TC. Other survivors should stand by the truth to counter the accusation being leveled against TC.

6.
TC never said Junior Pope was alive to say anything after the boat accident. But now, this producer is saying Junior Pope was asking if everything is okay. TC didn't mention that a gallon was thrown for Junior Pope.

NOTE:
My own question is why did it take more than 48 hours for this producer to come with her claims? Did she even present the claims to the AGN before getting suspended by the AGN? The claims by TC do not contradict each other. But the claims by the producer do not support one another. And the claim by the boat driver contradicts those of the producer. This case is like that of Mohbad. There is even another claim that the producer denied the responsibility of the boat transportation.

The highest blame goes to boat drivers who don't enforce the use of jackets. The government should be blamed for collecting levies from the boat drivers without enforcement of safety measures to the boat transportation. Or, doesn't the government collect levies from the drivers? AGN should be blamed because other producers acted like Adamma. The AGN has not been proactive. Then, the passengers should be blamed for not being security conscious. No sensible adult will travel by boat without insisting on using a life jacket.

one of the worstest thing to do on earth, is to lie on the head of a dead man that pope was offered life jacket but he refused it this adana of a girl is really an idiot! Because poor man don die and him dey provoke say him die and he spirit still dey roam about the spirit world and you go cum still bold dey lie for he head join?

I have always travelled through boat from lagos to Benin Republic. I always reject the life jacket cux of this same thing... Very dirty! December 20th 2023 outr boat had an accident. I was without a luge jacket.. this boat pple are same with our crazy road transport companies.

You have no point really. I just pity you

Like the yoruba adage says. "Aja ti o ba ma soonu, ko ni gbo feere ode". Meaning "The dog that will get lost will never hear the whistle of his shephard"

zed7:
No excuse for incompetence. I'm not blaming her, I'm blaming the boat owners who only care about profit.

I have had cause to use boats in Lagos and the so called life jackets are a joke. People don't know that life jackets lose their efficiency after a period of time. The boat owners don't care and will hand you a dirty looking, worn out life jacket.

I only hope we do better as a nation. Everything is all about self. Get your own life jacket if water is s major part of your transportation.

If you travel by water frequently, just endeavour to buy your own life jacket to avoid stories that touches.

Arizoner:
you that is talking, can you swim in river niger with your swimming lessons?

mami water go give am dat space?

This where training comes in.

Those days working offshore, in addition to life jackets being mandatory, you are also trained about the "survival circle" in the survival at sea training.

This is where all the survivors hold themselves together and the people without life jackets climb in the circle.

This way, rescue is easier as they easier to spot from a helicopter, are all together and those without life jackets have a higher chance of survival.

It's a pity.

She's trying to exonerate herself.

Many people don't take swimming skills seriously in this part of the world. They would rather spend 200k on rubbish than spend 30k or 20k for swimming lessons.

First time I heard sense coming from you

God punish this shameless liar

Nigga was struggling in water but still cared for others by asking if everyone was okay. He was a good man.

Naira20:
Una don start lie abi?
What about others that died?They also rejected the "dirty" life jackets?

It could be true. I once went for vacation in Calabar and decided to take a boat cruise to twins island. As close to the place was this merry party organized by one big boy. I was impromptu invited and since I had nothing doing it's a goal. While entering the fancy ferry we were all provided with life jackets, one big boy started by saying this is too dirty with supposed legions of germs attached to it. He refused it and some wannabes follow suites If anything had happen it's possible they won't survive the mishap and folks will blame the boat company for oversight.

Brandosky:
This foolish woman must not be let go unpunished.

Foolish woman indeed!!! Is JP and the rest a kid for transporting on water without a life jacket?

Your conclusion is very poor here or some of your analysis which I couldn't complete.
The jacket was not to go round. They just have one left which was meant for Pope but since he didn't used it someone else took it and used. You see those jacket that are made available can be dirty in look. Not that they are really dirty but because they have become old they now look that. I travel with boat and I have same experience of dirty looking jacket.

TC was also another source of distraction.

To me as how? Weren't you the one implying that you'd rather take your chances than put on the dirty life jacket. You could easily change to a different outfit before putting it on you know.

Jr Pope was primarily responsible for his safety, he is not a novice. He took his safety for granted because as an A-list actor, if he says he is not going without a life jacket, he will be provided one by force

richie240:
Was the same TC who (earlier) denied ever standing in d boat not later busted as a liar in another video which showed him not only standing but constituting a nuisance contrary to what he made us believe that he only sat at the front of the boat holding tightly to the anchor (rope) all through the journey before the mishap??

You didn't answer my question that followed the accusation of TC standing. If he standing was a challenge to the driver, who tried calling TC to order and what was TC's response?

CareerPal:
The probability of a hazard happening is usually low but that doesn't mean it cannot happen. He would have been alive if he had worn the dirty life jacket.

May his soul rest in peace.

Low...?!

The need for safety is the understanding that accidents will always occur.
Prevention or cures are then taken .
Dirty life jackets are no life jackets at all.
