“While onboard, you get to enjoy free Wi-Fi; there is also USB pot and a lot of side entertainment and side attractions enabled by technology.
“It was a major milestone for us to transport the Nigeria’s National Team to Benin Republic through the waterways.
“Coming on board LAGFERRY enroute international route to Benin Republic is a mind blowing experience we were excited to be part of it,” Balogun said.
The African Cup of Nations tournament is expected to be hosted by Cameroon, and will take place from January 9 to February 6, 2022.
