Small Canoe Carries Loaded Bus And Passengers Across River In Taraba State by GistMedia0: 11:59am On Apr 19 |
Canoe Carries Loaded Bus Across River in Taraba State, Nigeria, Without Life Jackets: A small canoe in Taraba State, Nigeria, defied expectations by ferrying a fully loaded bus and its passengers across a river. Eyewitnesses report that the bus, packed with passengers and goods, was attempting to cross the river when it encountered difficulties. With no bridge in sight and no other means of transportation available, the passengers and driver made the daring decision to load the bus onto a small canoe. What ensued was a nerve-wracking journey as the overloaded canoe struggled against the currents, carrying both the weight of the bus and the apprehensions of its occupants. Passengers were forced to cling to the back of the vehicle inside the precarious boat, with no life jackets in sight to ensure their safety. Videos of the extraordinary scene quickly circulated on social media, drawing both shock and concern from viewers. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rga6b884928 1 Like 1 Share

Accidents of boat mishaps occur One in a Million. You are only unfortunate if you are involved in that One in a Million accident. But Is it worth risking your life? Better to get a life jacket. 97 Likes 3 Shares |

Business people going about their hustle, putting their lives on the line. 😢😟 No life jackets, as almost always. While waiting for the government to do the needful, God bless their hustle so they can get their personal safety needs, if they must go through this more often. Because, for how long dem wan dey wait for government, when they have to go through this route over and over? It’s well… 2 Likes |

That's not a small canoe now. This further confirms theories that JP wasn't killed by the capsized boat. Well, the truth will definitely come out one day. 2 Likes 1 Share |
