What has Tinubu got to do with this?

200 women, I am sure they didn't count children that went with them.

How big can a single boat be to convey over 200 people.

It gat every thing to do with that prawn.

If the economic situations of things in Nigeria is good, they would not load 200 people on a single boat.

Same way you will enter overloaded Danfo to work just to save costs. You don’t want high transport cost you choose to cut cost. Same way the driver don’t want to lose, will decide to reduce price so you can go to work but to mitigate this he has to carry overload. Oga, the driver is not doing charity work to carry only you for low price. He must make gain. That’s business.

As long as the government of the day is evil, everybody must survive. Everybody in Nigeria is doing same thing in different environments and endeavors. We just like pointing fingers on the drivers whenever accident happened but the real people to hold responsible are the criminals at the Helm of affair who made Nigerians behave like animals and fraudulently in other to survive. Nigeria is a jungle where only the strong survive, the weak die or you die strongly to survive. You are doing worst, it’s just that yours have not caught up with you. It’s not your fault. It’s no body fault. It’s the criminals parading themselves as leaders.

you don't even know how to spell his name...


What has Tinubu got to do with this?

He risked his life to travel to France for the betterment of our nation but you still blame him for this avoidable mistake... Must you remain bitter all your life? Focus on making your own life better and Nigeria problem will reduce.

How can one boat transport 200 women, how Big is it?

"Ninety- nine percent of the mishaps on the waterways are a result of human errors. Research has shown that the operators are committing avoidable mistakes which shouldn’t have caused havoc.”

you wudnt know what is happening there.these ppl have no choice but to undertake these life threatening journeys over night. The distance btw them and the market in katcha is such that you had to travel overnight to meet up with the popular market. There are no motorable roads and the alternative routes are even cut off during the rainy season coz everywhere becomes water logged. These are the times you probably will spend 4 to 5 hours on the river with overflowing current.woe betide you if it rains in one of such nights.you cud be faced with a huge tree that is been transported by water current. Worse is, this is one of the few ways to survive in these areas.am from there and I lost an aunt in the accident.its been a while I cried.she was dear to me.

chigoziri2403:
My condolences brother, I understand the basic lack of infrastructure might be the cause, but life is fragile, overloaded boat is a recipe for disaster, you said one of the risks onclude overflowing current, you are aware of all these and still venture, RIP TO HER

egunna:
thanks, you probably feel that way coz you are not from there. This has been an age long thing.they ve bn plying or shud I say sailing this routes on a weekly bases for only God Knoz how long. It so happens that this particular one was ill fated. I don't know if you are conversant with the murtala bridge on your to lokoja, I once undertook that night journey too.traders come to buy and sell in the lokoja market day holds every 5 days. I once undertook the journey over night, we took off around 8-9 pm and got to drop point at about 7-8-9am the next day. These engine boats are large, u need to see them to understand what am saying.they cud carry like 200 bags of rice without stress. I once fell into the water too, but twasnt at night.our boat collided with another one so I had to Jump into the water to avoid been crushed. It's like the luxurious night bus to us. We can't help it.be sure that next market ppl will ply the same route. It will come when it will
