Too cost

Why is it so expensive?

Government and individuals should in this Niko

Wish I had the resources to do so

I'm not sure this information is correct.

But I know from Ijede in Ikorodu to lekki is N850.

And the boats could be dirty.

hopefulLandlord:
I avoid water transportation anytime I'm in Nigeria at almost all cost

Truth is our maintenance culture is terrible so it feels safer for me to take public road transport rather than ferry. if a BRT bus us poorly maintained it'll break down on the road and offload its passengers into another BRT while ferry might sink!

Of course there are safety measurements in place but its only a matter of time before such measurements cut corners on one after the other and I'd rather be safe than sorry. better late than never for me

What safety measures??
Please your paragraphs started well, lets keep it that way.
Water transport- over my dead body!

lordtosan:
Mere discussion exercise. We need to change our leaders.

LIKE for Atiku/Donald Duke PDP ticket

Smarte724:
Is even cheaper using land transportation

Plus less risk.

chukwukahenry:

draw no bet

for which of the team? Home or away?

Like if you hate water transport like me, share if you like

OP, go and do your findings very before you post it. I am a regular commuter of the ferry. The fare from Ikorodu to V/I and Marina ranges between N700.00 and N900.00 depending on which operator you patronize.

The measures developed countries use

lifejackets, emergency services, top class engineering, maintenance and repairs amongst many others

moorevic:
7 minutes 150 and 6 minutes 500 ayam not understanding

Probably the latter is a small boat while the former a big boat that will take more passengers, hence time before its loaded. Just like taxis and okada are more expensive than buses.

We got first hand information on how much it costs to patronize these commercial ferry services.

Our observation is that there are several, though slight, variations in the fares demanded for trips to some specific destinations. These variations are determined by the capacity of the engines of the ferries , the quality of the boats, etc.[/size]

However, we also observed something as it relates to the fares being charged by the ferry services operators: the amount currently being charged as fares by these commercial ferry operators would be significantly reduced if there were more ferries participating and competing with the few existing ones on the Lagos Inland waterways.

It goes without say, if this mode of mass transit is sincerely explored by the government, it would significantly decongest the roads and rid the state of the legendary road traffic gridlocks in Lagos.

Note: The fares varies slightly with each ferry. The fare is determined by the size of the ferry and its engine capacity.

Why would you tell me that marina to oyingbo is N500. Marina to ebute-ero N350. This are treakable distances for God sake. We like to dey cheat ourselves in this country.
