How Body Of Doctor Orji Who Jumped Into Lagoon Was Recovered by pencil143(m): 5:03am On Mar 23, 2017 |
The body of the medical
doctor, Allwell Orji, who
jumped off the 3rd mainland
bridge on Sunday evening, has
been recovered.
The Lagos State Commissioner
of Police, Mr Fatai Owoseni,
confirmed the recovery of the
body on Tuesday.
He said the body was
recovered by the Marine Police
at the Onikan end of the
lagoon.
The body was found three
days after the incident
occurred.
Until his death, Dr. Orji worked
at the Mount Sinai Hospital in
Surulere area of Lagos State,
southwest Nigeria.
He was said to be on his way
to Victoria Island for a meeting
with the Medical and Dental
Association of Nigeria when
the incident happened.
Temporary reports from Police
authorities revealed that the
deceased had asked his driver
to stop the vehicle before
jumping across the bridge and
into the water.
LASEMA said there was a
distress call of a man who
parked his grey coloured
Nissan SUV at about 4:50 pm
around Adekunle and jumped
into the Lagos lagoon.
The agency said the vehicle
and the driver had been taken
to Adeniji Adele Police Station
for further investigation.
Spokesman of the Lagos State
Emergency Management
Agency (LASEMA), Mr. Kehinde
Adebayo, had said the agency
was alerted by concerned
Nigerians.
Just three days after Dr. Orji
case, a similar incident has
been recorded as a middle-
aged woman reportedly
jumped into the lagoon in the
Maza-Maza area of the state.
The woman was, however,
rescued following the timely
intervention of local fishermen
and divers in the area.
According to witnesses, the
woman had walked casually to
the Maza-Maza bridge in the
Mile Two area and to the shock
of people around, she took a
dive into the lagoon but the
fishermen dived in after her
and rescued her.
The woman, dressed in a
blouse and trousers was
earlier seen walking aimlessly
and when she got to the
middle of the bridge, she
climbed the rail and jumped.
