Lagos Targets 2m Passengers On Water Daily As Ambode Unveils Three Executive Boats

The Lagos State Governor, Akinwunmi Ambode, on Sunday commissioned three newly acquired executive boats by the State Government, with a pledge to fully explore the tourism and economic potentials of the waterways in the State for the overall benefit of the people.

Speaking at the unveiling of the boats at Caverton Jetty in the Civic Centre area of Victoria Island, the Governor said the State Government was committed to the implementation of the integrated transport management system designed to scale up water, rail and land transportation.


Ambode said the grand plan is to divert at least two million passengers on the waterways daily, thereby reducing traffic on the road.

He said the boats and four Jet Skis recently acquired by the State Government to ensure safety and fight crime on the waterways were prelude to major plans to fully activate the potentials of water transportation, while in coming months the State Government would take delivery of additional seven commercial ferries, among other plans for the sector.
