Small Canoe Carries Loaded Bus And Passengers Across River In Taraba State (Video)

A small canoe in Taraba State, Nigeria, defied expectations by ferrying a fully loaded bus and its passengers across a river.

Eyewitnesses report that the bus, packed with passengers and goods, was attempting to cross the river when it encountered difficulties. With no bridge in sight and no other means of transportation available, the passengers and driver made the daring decision to load the bus onto a small canoe.

What ensued was a nerve-wracking journey as the overloaded canoe struggled against the currents, carrying both the weight of the bus and the apprehensions of its occupants. Passengers were forced to cling to the back of the vehicle inside the precarious boat, with no life jackets in sight to ensure their safety.

Videos of the extraordinary scene quickly circulated on social media, drawing both shock and concern from viewers.
