According to eyewitnesses, most passengers were not wearing life jackets when the collision happened.

The Delta State Police Command confirmed the incident, with the command’s spokesperson, Edafe Bright, stating that six survivors were rescued with injuries and are currently receiving treatment at an undisclosed hospital in Warri.

“This is a tragic accident, and we are working with marine units and local divers to locate the missing passengers,” Bright said.

A resident, who gave his name as Emmanuel Okoro, described the scene as chaotic. He said, “People were screaming for help. Some managed to swim to shore, but others disappeared beneath the water.”

Rescue operations are ongoing as authorities and local volunteers search for the missing victims.
