The Enforcement and Monitoring Team of the Lagos State Waterways Authority (LASWA) caught a boat operator ferrying passengers without life jackets in Epe. The operator was apprehended and the engine of the boat was seized.
The Authority DOES NOT condone traveling on water without a life jacket, and we continue to implore all waterways users to ensure that they wear a good life jacket before boarding the boat, however short the trip is. Operators will be made to face disciplinary action when caught.
