According to Stanley, the boat was supposed to convey six people but it transported 15 people at once.

He added that Nigerian movie producers, especially those in Asabawood, love to manage their resources.

He added if anyone dares to complain, the person will get blacklisted in the industry.

Furthermore, he said that aside from Adanma, the boat driver should also be arrested, as there were no life jackets for those who entered the boat.

@lily_lambo6965:

"What is the need to suspend the movie producer? Are there any kids among the victims Instead of suspending the Adanma production, why not caution the sailer? How many people here fasten their seat belts while driving or in the car? Are you guys trying to do eye service, which is medicine after death? If there should be a blame, let it go to those driving the boat. It's their responsibility to provide a safety jacket, not the producer."

@doris.dior.16:

"All of them are now producers. Competition and envy. Everybody gets YouTube TV."

"On top 1 useless movie many lives gone."
