Abisola Kamson, managing director of the Lagos State Waterways Authority, confirmed the tragic incident in a statement.
He blamed it on overloading of passengers on a banana boat and operation of an illegal jetty.
Kamson said four victims of the mishap who were rescued are receiving treatment at a nearby hospital, while search and rescue operation was still ongoing.
