Two of the bodies were first recovered and the body of the girl was later recovered.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is very sad, but 19 passengers were rescued. They were en route to Bonny Island from Port Harcourt when the boat capsized at the Yellow Platform in Bonny. Investigation is ongoing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Bonny Local Government authorities also confirmed that incident and commiserated with the bereaved families.<\/p>\n<p>The Chairman of Bonny LGA, Anengi Claude-Wilcox, in a statement issued on Monday, signed by the Secretary to the council, John Gabriel-Pepple, said she was deeply saddened by the incident.<\/p>\n<p>The statement partly reads, \u201cThe Bonny Local Government Council is deeply saddened by the tragic boat crash that occurred on the Bonny-Port Harcourt sea route on Sunday, January 19, 2025, claiming the lives of two adults and a toddler.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPreliminary findings revealed that the crash was caused by a sudden rise of the oceanic storm which troubled the boat, leading to the unfortunate crash that claimed three lives, with 19 survivors who were all immediately taken for medical attention at the expense of the Bonny Local Government.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe extend our sincerest condolences to the families, friends, and loved ones of the victims. May God grant you all the strength and fortitude to bear this irreparable loss.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He said the council shared in the grief and pain and prayed for the repose of the departed souls.<\/p>\n<p>Claude-Wilcox however said the council was investigating a passenger boat that was at the scene during the incident but refused to assist the victims, even as she warned against travelling under turbulent conditions.<\/p>\n<p>The statement added, \u201cSadly, information reaching the council revealed that there was a passenger boat that met the scene of the incident but refused to stop to rescue the victims while they were struggling to survive on the sea.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnybody with useful information about the particular boat driver should contact the council secretary. The Bonny Local Government Council advises travellers to be cautious of the weather and adhere strictly to the safety rules and measures of passenger ferries, to avert a recurrence.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The boat was travelling from Port Harcourt to Bonny in Bonny Local Government Area of capsized when the incident happened Three people, including a toddler, have lost their lives after a boat capsized in Rivers State.
