 Boat Capsizes in Kogi with Over 200 Passengers, Eight Bodies Recovered


A boat carrying over 200 market women from Kogi State capsized on Thursday while en route to a market in Niger State, according to the National Inland Waterways Authority (NIWA). Suleman Makama, Head of NIWA’s Media Department, confirmed the accident, which occurred along the Dambo-Ebuchi section of the River Niger.


Eyewitnesses reported that the boat, owned by Musa Dangana, was carrying market women and farm workers when it capsized. As of now, eight bodies have been recovered, and search and rescue operations are still underway to locate the remaining passengers. The exact number of casualties is still under investigation.


Makama stated that he is awaiting approval from NIWA management before issuing a full report. The Managing Director of NIWA, Mr. Bola Oyebanji, has previously attributed boat accidents to human error, drug abuse, and failure to comply with safety regulations. He stressed that these accidents often occur due to overloaded boats and the absence of safety measures, such as life jackets.
