Corpses of the female corp member and three others including a 70-year-old chief from Otuan Community who drowned in Saturday’s boat mishap in Bayelsa State have been found.

According to sources in the community, the corpses of other victims of the boat mishap that occurred along with the Otuan and Ayama communities of the Southern Ijaw Local Government council area are still missing.

The boat accident was allegedly caused by bad weather, poor visibility, and the lack of life jackets for passengers.

According to boat operators at Ayama waterfront, the corpses of the victims, particularly the female corps member, identified as Immaculate from Rivers State and the 70-year-old chief from Otuan, were found floating on Sunday night close to the scene of the incident.

Confirming this development, Bayelsa State Chairman of the Maritime Workers Union, Comrade Ipigansi Ogoniba, said that the recovered corpses have been handed over the families of the deceased, while the two toddlers are still missing.

He disclosed that the authority of the National Youths Service Corps (NYSC) has been notified of the recovery of the corpse of the deceased female corps member.

What a sad incident!
May their souls rest in peace.
May God give their families the fortitude to bear this huge loss.

The transportation system in these coastal regions are nothing to write home about and they have become comfortable with it.

So painful

Maybe you'll stop when the source of the bad news comes from you.

we no want bad news again but good news

Is life Jacket that expensive that commercial boat operators can't provide for their passengers

Ordinary life jackets could not be provided by boat operators. Ahh, what kind of people are we? Unfortunately too, when life jackets are available, some Nigerians refuse to make use of them. What avoidable loss of life. May God comfort the families that have lost their loved ones.

God Almighty Please Guide And Protect Us

Rip to them

Don't they provide life jackets?

Guy, Almost all boats have life jackets just that some passengers choose not wear them. Saying they are not comfortable with it. And life jackets alone don't give the maximum safety u need.. Sometimes the nature of the accident is also a factor. If you have used water transportation u will know. By the way am from Bayelsa state and that route is one I ply when going to my village.

It's like u don't understand wat u are saying.
Life jacket can't save u on such water, I have used life jacket before. It's useless if u don't know how to swim.
And u can't swim through such river.

Go nd try it out in swimming pool to see if u will float with life jacket, not to talk of river.

Pple are just shouting life jacket this nd that.
Life jackets can't save shit in riverine communities.

I served there nd had a lot of life jackets, if u don't know how to swim nd u are not an indigene of that community, just forget it.

Can u swim for 30 minutes at a stretch in a river?
U won't even float with life jacket?

If u think u know better, go try out life jacket in a swimming pool to see if u will float?
