A 67-Year-Old Man Prevented From Jumping Into Lagos Lagoon On His Birthday.

The rapid response squad (RRS) of the Lagos police command says its operatives have prevented a 67-year-old man from jumping into a lagoon in the state.

The RRS, in a statement, said its operatives were on patrol along the Third Mainland Bridge on Tuesday when the man was seen trying to jump into the Lagoon.

“The elderly man was attempting to jump into the Lagos Lagoon inward Lagos Island when the officers stopped him,” the statement reads.

“He disclosed that a personal challenge made him sell his house, land and car. With that, he still couldn’t solve the problem. He got a loan and the problem still persisted.

“He explained further that he secured a job and on the resumption date, he was informed that the job had been given to someone else.”

The man, identified as a resident of Oju-Ore area of Ogun state, reportedly said he was frustrated and decided to take his life on Tuesday, which is his birthday.

“Today, being my birthday, I have decided to end it all. The burden and the frustration are too much for me to bear. My wife has abandoned me in the process,” he was quoted as saying.

The RRS, however, said the man has been taken to Adekunle police station, “where efforts are in progress to contact his family members”.
