The Lagos State Government has taken delivery of some new ferries. The ferries will be replaced some old ones used to ferry users across the state. One of the main fear of Lagosians which have made them not to patronize the ferry has always been the safety of the boats and ferries. The Lagos State Government has responded by buying brand new ferries to make transportation easier.

AutoReportNG took these images at LASWA office close to MTN building at Falomo, Lagos. We notice the ferries are brand new, they were adorned in Lagos official colour, the words, "Itesiwaju Eko" were written on them too.

It will be recalled that the Lagos State Government has been trying to diversify attention from roads to water but the efforts seem to be yielding little or no results.

Good initiative but they should not allow any okro and ewedu on board so as to avoid disaster...

Good news, less traffic, but they should increase safety also

Good one Gov Ambode.keep on doing the good job.

Boat that has been there since December ending/first week in January, they are not letting commuters use it.

It is just there for sight seeing

Lagos has still not harnessed its water transport potentials.

hope is going to b affordable

He wasn’t accommodating enough and wasn’t sharing the dollars

acquire new ferries, that means the ones on ground are old.

Those boats look really nice.

Good move, but they should try and acquire good live jacket for each of the would-be passanger.

You can see many Haters on this thread

Lagosian will remember Ambode for sure.
