In a statement, the General Manager of LASWA, Mr. Oluwadamilola Emmanuel, warned all boat operators to frequently observe weather conditions and ensure their ferries are in good condition before sailing.
According to him, LASWA is intensifying efforts at ensuring regular monitoring and safety compliance on the waterways.
“The agency has also commenced its bi-annual boat condition survey across all jetties. The exercise, which started on July 7, 2021, was part of efforts to continually guarantee the safety of waterways users in the state,” he said.
