I think the solution is simple. Anyone they catch like that, make them rush am and beat am well well. The victim will be shocked sef. You dey except people to rescue you but Na to beat the sucide comot fo their body. Na you get your life? Why take it when you didn't choose to come here by yoursef in the first place.

See the baba face sef, you go know sey the baba need help. Why him go stand near where police park and dey look the water? grin grin

If you wan really die, before dem know sef you don reach bottom. If this lagoon thing continue, very soon sef shark go dey stroll come lagoon on visit oo.

Come to think of it, if Na shark waters how many people go jump inside?

Just imagine sey this sucide people decide to die on the road and jump enter motor mouth and the car kill am; the owner or driver is in trouble oo. In fact dem go burn the innocent man car not knowing sey na sucide. Nobody will listen to you if you say the man jump enter road when him see your car dey come. #Alakoba!!

Abeg make dem kukuma dey go lagoon o!
Type something reasonable in English... Pls.

This is not a new thing. People do it a lot. Dr Allwell just escalated it cos he did it openly with a witness. Economic situation is not only the reason. Many other reasons attached.
Won't FG be advised to fence the bridge so....lol (sarcasm)

How did they know that he wanted to jump into the lagoon? Was he waiting for people to see him or how?
I think this is becoming a trend for people to manipulate other people into solving or finding solution to their problems!

Some people are just playing pranks jare!

This is what I have in mind too

Why don't they jump into the lagoon at night when no one will see them? Why always the daytime when they know someone will see them and stop them?

All na stunt, even if u want to jump in the lagoon at noon, no one will rescue u ,unless u make an announcement before trying to jump, even batman can't rescue u when u jump without announcing , he just needed peoples attention

Trust nigerians to take everything to ridiculous levels.
It has now gone into attention seeking for problem-solving. They want to finish Fatai Owoseni's money.
No more largesse.

wicked woman.... People are traumatized and depressed ... biggest problem? They are NOT being treated! No social welfare system, no safety nets ..no mortgage system...the system is designed to keep the masses downtrodden and in acute poverty...


Park well smartie, aren't we all in it together! Abi govt is giving you all those things privately ni? We all have problems, yes, we all respond to problems differently. However, can't we all just manage out problems without further constituting nuisance to our loved ones and the general public. Why aren't you and your people aiming to jump abi no be this country we all dey? Besides, anyone really serious about exiting will make for the door before he could be stopped just like Allwell did. May God help us all.

Bros, I dnt knw d kind of god yu serve, but pls pray not to be depressed.. Only dose who has gone tru dat path will understand wat I'm saying...

Its obviously nt easy 2 drink alomo let alone comitin suicide. Wen tryin 2 take ur life, yu still have few minutes or seconds 2 reconsider if yur problems is wat dyin for...

The difference between those who jumped and dose wu were rescued is wat happens between that last minutes or seconds

Anybody really serious about suicide should be it in his room nao. Or is the lagoon the only accredited suicide spot?

There is nothing like the lagoon is angry and needed to be appeased. This assertion is fallacious and obnoxious.

For what we are seeing is a response from life that fails to discover it purpose and how to fulfill it.

It doesn't matter your status or worth, as long as you have no reason to live,abuse is inevitable.

People should learn to discover their purpose or essence of existence and live to fulfill it, for in this shall you derive joy and happiness.

Mr Motivational Speaker, una don come again.

The pressure people like you put on your listeners make them think and attempt the undoable. You ignore the law of nature/organic growth and pressurize your listeners to go and achieve in six months what would ordinarily take 10 years.

Your listeners go to any length to arrive since that is the only way they can get recognised and celebrated. The unfortunate ones get frustrated and resort to crime, some even attempt suicide.

Please keep your motivational speech and allow people live their lifes one day at a time.

No mind them, there are several other ways of accomplishing their mission instead of making it public. They can sneak in d middle of d night to hug transformer, they can electrocute themselves in d corner of their rooms, drink sniper where no one will see them. Now some fools will say na govt dey cause am. See, na desperate measure. To seek attention so that people can help

Well, bros, we all are in dis country 2geda, we suffer 2geda but we definitely don't suffer equally..

I'm very sure allwell dint go fr d death door immediately, he still had 2 think bfr jumpin even if its just fr few seconds. The only reason he wasn't stopped is because smtin of such hasn't happnd of recent and people dint probably take a young man walking across d bridge seriouly until he finally made his last seconds decision.

Well, just like yuv said... May God help us all!

The whole scenario after Allwell Orji issue, others that followed are like nollyhood script.. I won't appealed to anyone who wanted to take his or her life anymore. Just do that quietly in your room.. it is very easy and convenient to see baba God without you seeking or disturbing your surroundings.. if you want to die, die and see who will be blamed.. Yeye!
U WUUCKED O!

Me wicked?

Did you understand my point at all?
I'm not saying depression is not real neither am I denying that depressed people are not properly taken care of .....but........
Why were we not hearing about jumping into lagoon prior to that doctor's case? Why are people turning the unfortunate event into a trend?
Were there no depressed people before that doctor's case happened?
Are you saying that what that doctor did is now an eye opener for other depressed people?
Please, let's be realistic for once, this is Nigeria, many Nigerians are so manipulative and me and you know that!

Just after that doctor's case, we have see at least three other people attempting to jump into the lagoon, why after his case?

Should we call it abuse of suicide attempt or what?

Your observation is not out of place. There is a concept known as the Werther's effect which spawns from another term known as the "Copycat syndrome". It occurs when a trigger suicide that is well publicized in the media or local news induces others with suicidal ideation to follow the same MO as the original suicide leading to what is known as "Suicide clusters".

After all, there has been some other recent suicides before the doctor's case but with different Modus Operandi. But I knew that with the recession bitting hard on Nigerians, it is only a matter of time before we have others trying to use the third mainland bridge MO after Orji's publicized success (please pardon my use of that phrase).

hmmm , will I say some Nigerians have become mentally, emotional physiological, physiological sick.. cus of recession or what stop the sH|t that the damn river created by God to be angry who will give it the permission if to God.

Judas iscariot in the bible committed suicide because he sold Jesus, anyone that commits suicide he/her is an enemy of God
