LEADERSHIP earlier reported that the National Inland Waterways Authority (NIWA) announced the rescue of about 100 victims of the boat mishap.

However, credible sources told our Correspondent that only 31 persons have been rescued alive out of the 200 victims of the boat mishap.

Disturbed by the incident, the Kwara State government on Wednesday dispatched a high-powered delegation led by the speaker of the state House of Assembly, Engr. Yakubu Danladi- alihu to Gwajibo Mudi to commiserate with the families of the victims.

The state governor, AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq, in a statement signed by his chief press secretary, Rafiu Ajakaye, said he was shocked and saddened over “the tragic boat mishap involving at least 200 people from Gwajibo Mudi community in Kaiama local government area.”
