Twenty people have survived in boat accident on Lake Malawi in Likoma after the boat they boarded capsized.
Reports reaching this publication indicates that these people were traveling from Likoma island to Mozambique.
The accident happened when the boat hit a rock underneath the water soon after departure from Bamba Port off the island to Mozambique, and got damaged, a situation which allowed water to fill it up.
No life has been lost as the captain of the boat and well wishers managed to save those onboard.
Meanwhile, the police in Likoma have arrested these people for using uncharted route as the Government of Mozambique closed down its borders with Malawi due the global pandemic of Covid-19.
