Tilumbu don use this for sacrifice

Many are going through a lot these days. Whatever the situation, suicide is not the answer

The jumping will continue until Tinubu gives up his deluded presidential ambition

That river is not deep

Tinubu never win yet ona don dey jump

There is hunger in the land. With this flood, there may be famine. If you are wise store up food. May God help us.

Some people are just possessed with evil spirit.

How can someone attempt suicide on multiple occasion, it's a demonic spirit pushing them to take their life, most times sent by evil men and women..

Is it not this river that leads to iragbiji?

Too many pains , Too many worries. The country is messed up. Economy is on a downward slope. Depression is constant and funny enough I always stay away from temptation to commit suicide. I'm just hanging on to nothing right now.

Yoruba Muslims are committing suicide because of Peter Obi.

The season of jumping
