  8. We keep taking safety for granted in this country. I guess no one wore safety jacket in that boat. And if you bring it up to the boat driver and passengers, they will tell you how they have been plying the route for long, say na God dey protect. Really sad

  13. Very unfortunate! Water level is high this period. Safety should be enforced by the relevant agencies. We can't keep having this every time. Life is precious.May the Lord show up for those who are still struggling to swim to safety and may the souls of the departed rest in peace.
