Woebegone - Man Jumps Off Lagos Longest Bridge, Into The Lagoon!

Could this be the ramification of Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), could the victim be caught up in the current appalling Recession or could he have suffered a major disappointment?

How best can one explain this situation where the owner of the grey Nissan SUV below, with registration number LND-476EE reportedly jumped off the Adekunle end of 3rd Mainland Bridge, Lagos-Nigeria at about 4:50 pm, on Sunday, 19th March, 2017.


Eye witness account states that the car owner, identified as 35-year-old Dr. Allwell Orji, asked his driver, Henry Ita, to stop the car so he could ease himself. The Dr got off and instead climbed and jumped off the bridge, into the Lagoon.

As at the time of filing this report, efforts was being made by officials of the Lagos State Emergency Agency to recover the corpse of the deceased, while the vehicle and the driver were taken to the Adeniji Adele Police station, Lagos Island for further investigation.

Dr. Orji, a staff of Mount Sinai Hospital, Surulere, Lagos, was reportedly on his way to a meeting organized by the Medical and Dental Council of Nigeria at Victoria Island, Lagos - Nigeria.
