Lagos, Nigeria – Commuters traveling from Oke-Ira in Ikorodu to Bayeku faced a harrowing experience on Wednesday when the wooden boat they were aboard stalled mid-journey due to an empty fuel tank.
One of the passengers, Adejoke Afolabi, captured the unsettling scene in a video shared online, showing the boat adrift in the expansive Lagos lagoon with no immediate help in sight. The unexpected halt left passengers in a state of unease as they found themselves stranded on the water.
While details remain limited, this incident highlights the potential risks associated with water transportation in Lagos, particularly concerning the maintenance and operational preparedness of vessels. It is unclear at this time how long the passengers were stranded or the eventual resolution of the situation.
Authorities are yet to comment on this specific incident. However, it comes amid ongoing discussions about the safety and regulation of water transport in the state, a vital means of commuting for many Lagosians, especially in areas with challenging road infrastructure.
