The engers didn't wear life jackets but the rescue team wore life jackets.
Accidents like this happens when there is no law governing the water ways.
Imagine 16 engers are still missing. Who knows? they must have drowned. Safety first.
RIP to the dead.

They won't come out and protest. They won't hold government able to make things work better, if it's coza they will come out in numbers to protest instead of going to court.

What happens to giving out life jacket to engers? For the life of me, I won't enter a boat without one. If they don't have I just don't board. If it is an area I use frequently I'd buy myself one. Most people in this country called Nigeria play with people's lives and safety. My condolences to the people who lost their lives to this tragedy. I hope victim's family get to sue the boat company for negligence.

Useless country. They are never prepared for emergency. Always running from pillar to pole when it happens.
