About this trap
Boats link Yenagoa with creek towns, but overloaded and night-time boats still end in accidents. Bayelsa guidelines call for life jackets for every passenger and advise against night travel, cooking on board and carrying fuel, and federal officials repeat the rule of no life jackets, no movement. Use the Swali Jetty hub, ask for a jacket before you step in, walk away from an overloaded boat, and plan to be back well before dark.
