Meanwhile, the Nasarawa State House of Assembly, has passed into second reading, a bill for a law for the establishment of inland waterways regulatory agency in the state.

The bill which was sponsored by member representing Akwanga South constituency, Larry Ven Bawa, is aimed at regulating the carriage of persons and goods across all waterways in the state.

It is also expected to boost the socio-economic activities in riverine communities, create jobs and stem the rising incidences of accidents on waterways.
