You can afford jet ski ride but cant learn how to swim?? You cant from due to overspeeding, you can crash or fall, drowning is due to ingestion of water in your lungs

Might have passed out after getting knocked out by the jet ski or dragged underwater or something. Because if he can't swim and he's speeding with a jet ski, I think that's his fault.

Terrible. Imagine drowning in a water that is filled will human faeces. If the water doesn't kill you, the sh!t will. That lagoon is main toilet for area boys and street urchins on the island.

Even if he wanted to speed (which I like to do and is one reason I would never live abroad long term) did he not have a life jacket on? and most importantly he could not swim? Unfortunate oo.
abroad he can't enter that water without life jackets lifeguards will whip him out of that water with koboko

I don't get it, is it possible to be jet skiing without knowing how to swim?

I actually did...my swimming is rusty.

Was on a date with a babe. Had life jacket on and coast guards on standby

Even if he can swim, does he have the stamina and strength to swim to safety?

Even if you can swim, where are you going to swim to if you're in the middle of a massive ocean?

Unless you are at a swimming distance to shore, even the best olympic swimmer will be exhausted.

It's advisable to stay still and afloat to await rescuers. Hopefully, with the lifejacket on and no sharks in the vicinity, he may be rescued on time.

If you can swim, you can float and wait for rescue

What about his life jacket?
Re: Man Drowns While Riding A Jet-Ski On Ikoyi Waterways by muzeze77: 12:17pm On Jan 12, 2023
He definitely was not wearing a life jacket,life jacket will keep you afloat no matter what
Re: Man Drowns While Riding A Jet-Ski On Ikoyi Waterways by BernieLee(m): 12:17pm On Jan 12, 2023
I know the man personally. Won’t mention the name here but he’s a northerner. We worked for the same establishment at some point.
Very simple and easy going. From what I gathered he wasn’t on life jacket.

RIP to the dead and another lesson for the living.
