 Now, travelling on Lagos Ferry will now attract cash rewards, so says the Lagos State Government. This comes as the Government announced that its waterways are now safer. The Managing Director of Lagos State Ferry Services, like Ferry, Abdubeak, Ladi Balugu, chaired a press conference covered by a correspondent, Love Ikuku Oyeduku. Lagos remains one of the busiest cities in Nigeria. Its home to over 500 active startups with a massive consumer market. Commuting within a state densely populated as Lagos has been herculean in spite of alternative means such as water transportation. All that is about to change now, with a reward system in place. Lagos Ferry users are now to receive cash rewards when they use the waterways. The core values of the initiative is said to create responsive paths to meet the needs of Lagosians. As a consumer, you use this token and you believe that you've used up to 5000 error on record and you expect to qualify for the draws and the token. In an effort to raise the standards for safety measures, the Government is said to establish a command and control centre to monitor activities on the waterways. The State Government, as well, is about to commission the first of its kind in West Africa, a command and a control centre. The whole idea of that command and control centre is to effectively monitor all of the activities going on the waterways in terms of safety, in terms of security, and of course gather data for the Government to make informed decisions. This would also help us be able to respond to emergencies even much quicker. Yes, we know there were unfortunate incidents in the recent time, but prior to those two incidents, which were back to back for nine months, we didn't have any incidents on our water, which is the first of its kind. All eyes, especially travellers and waters, are looking forward to the impact of the project. Love Ikuku Oyeduku. Plus, TV News.
