Tragedy played out in Delta State as four persons were feared dead
with a newborn baby missing following a boat mishap within the enclaves
of Gbaramatu Kingdom in Warri South-West Local Government Area of Delta
State.
An eyewitness, who craved anonymity, said the speed boat capsized because its driver was not a professional.
According to the eyewitness, “The boat driver was not good. Because
of that, he could not control the boat on the heavy waves. Before we
know what was happening, the boat capsized and four persons died before
rescue came their way.”
The mother of the missing baby refused to speak with our
correspondent as she wept profusely at the Ogbe-Ijoh Waterside in Warri.
