BNXN Slams Lagos Boat Ride Industry for Exploitation and Safety Issues
In the latest episode of Backstage Banter, hosted by Isi Ijewere in Canada, singer BNXN discussed the high costs and poor safety standards of boat rides in Lagos. When asked about the cost of a boat ride from Lekki to Ilase, he highlighted the exploitation within the industry, noting that companies charge exorbitant fees for boats that can’t safely accommodate the advertised number of passengers. He expressed frustration over the lack of life jackets on some boats used by those who pay much less.
BNXN also discussed the disparity in safety standards, pointing out that while some people pay high fees for boat rides, others risk their lives on cheaper, unsafe boats without life jackets. He emphasized that the exploitation and lack of proper safety measures are major issues in Lagos’ boat ride industry.
When asked about Burna Boy’s influence on his craft, BNXN praised Burna Boy’s unique personality and talent. He recalled discovering Burna Boy in 2013/14 and being impressed by his forward-thinking music. BNXN highlighted that the public’s perception of Burna Boy differs from the warm and approachable character he displays in private, solidifying his status as a legendary and talented artist.
