A Canoe loaded with 25 people just capsized in FESTAC and only 3 people survived. The boat was crossing people from 6th avenue to 4th avenue.
According to an eye witness the boat was overloaded because people were much waiting to go out/their home and the boat was mostly consisted of children.
So painful that the government cannot build a common ordinary bridge there as the wooden bridge which served as link got burnt .
It happened around 7pm yesterday 11th march and as at then they've brought out just 7 people at 10:25pm, the local government chairman of Amuwo Odofin was there and the area boys acted as rescue team,
As at then, people were not allowed to take pictures. More information would be revealed gradually.
May God Almighty grant the families of the bereaved the heart to bear the loss.
