Extending his heartfelt sympathies to the families of the dead and the injured, the NIWA boss stated that the incident is more disheartening as some of the victims on board were reportedly heading for farming activities.
Commending the life-saving work of the first responders, local divers and police marine at the scene of the incident, Dr. Moghalu wished the wounded a speedy recovery and success on the search and rescue of some missing passengers on the capsized boat.
The NIWA boss reiterated tye call on transporters to ensure strict adherence to safety regulations on the nation’s waterways, emphasizing on the need for the people in the riverine communities traveling by boats and canoes to use live jackets and avoid overcrowded boats.
Dr. Moghalu prayed Almighty God to comfort the grieving relations at this very difficult time.
