Unarguably, Nigeria has witnessed more suicide cases within the last 4 years than since when the country gained independence.

Clearly, there is frustration and hardship in the land. These situations have been very effective in driving so many Nigerians into depression and other mental health conditions.

Numerous cases of suicide are being reported from different parts of the country. Lagos state is not an exception.

However, in Lagos state, one spot has become notorious as a location of choice, or a favourite, for those with tendency for suicide. That location is the Third Mainland Bridge.

Frequently, Nigerians who have lost all reasons to keep staying alive travel all the way to the Third-Mainland Bridge. There, they take the very daring plunge into the Lagos lagoon, and then sink deep into their demise.

So, how can this unfortunate trend be stopped?

What measure needs to be put in place to prevent people from reducing the bridge to a place of death?

Perhaps, the government – Federal or State – should consider erecting high mesh fences similar to the median fences being erected on Lagos expressways.

Hopefully, if this is done, then the Third Mainland Bridge would stop being self-execution ground for depressed Nigerians.

The wiseone, what solution are you providing to suicide? Even developed countries cannot stop suicide....

Learn not to insult, did your parents not teach you manners?

You can put your points across without throwing insults.....

"Let's view it as an indirect means to correct population explosion"Suicide should never be taken as a joke,Google logan paul.You may not have experienced depression but that doesn't mean u should be ignorant about it.
A lot of people are going through pains physically or emotionally which makes them to believe that taking their lives is the only way out,these are people just like You and me who are going through challenges they are Yet to overcome,just imagine your loved one's enemy commited suicide and i maid a statement that it's an Indirect way of reducing population,It would surely hurt you because it's has affected your enemy.
Please do not see suicide as a minor thing.

I've seen a lot of suicides topics on the frontpage and i noticed that nlers are commenting that Oh one less idiot or fool and this shows that we have a lot of ignorant and inhumane people on nl and in Nigeria.



About a year ago i mixed sniper with the remaining insecticide we bought for fumigation because of what i am going through but i am still alive and breathing now just because of my mum who unknowingly to her my plans called me and spoke to me that night with words of encouragement.I used to be so full of life and cheerful,we were living comfortable but things changed and i was Oppressed & also depressed,So i know how depression feels.I pray u or any of your loved ones would never go through SERIOUS depression.

I Apologize for any insult i made earlier but Sir please see suicide and depression as a major concern in our society.

nonsense talk,where is hell? i support anyone willing to commit suicide,provided they have strong reasons.some situations can be really hopeless.luckily,we humans reincarnate,so a 'suicidee' can always have the chance to relive life again.
