The meeting was also a fact-finding mission to assess the maritime tourism ecosystem and the challenges facing boat operators in Lagos.
The tourism stakeholders lamented the lack of adequate infrastructure—navigation markers, such as the green and red indicators—that denote safe and unsafe routes.
They also complained about the weak enforcement of existing regulations that required full compliance from boat operators and passengers.
The President of FTAN, Mr Nkereweum Onung, urged the Federal, State Governments and water transport operators to prioritise safety and infrastructure development in the maritime tourism sector.
