According to him, in order to prevent further occurrence of such incidents, the government will, in collaboration with experts, sensitise the boat operators as well as the users on prevention and safety measures.

He also said the government would collaborate with the Nigeria Inland Waterways Authority (NIWA) to provide lifejackets in all the water transport stations in the state.
