In a sad suicidal move, a medical doctor, Allwell Orji,
jumped into the Lagos lagoon on Sunday the 19th of March
2017.
The incident happened at 4:45pm on Third Mainland Bridge
when 35-year-old was on his way to Victoria Island where
he was going to attend a Medical and Dental Council of
Nigeria (MDCN) meeting.
Orji, who left from his house at Abule Ijesha in Yaba, was
said to have told his driver, Henry Ita, to parked his Nissan
Sports Utility Vehicle (SUV) marked LND476EE at the
Adeniji Adele end of the bridge on the excuse that he
wanted to pee.
As he came down, the doctor was said to have climbed the
bridge’s rail guide and jumped into the ocean.
Orji is said to be a staff of the Isolo branch of Mt. (Mount)
Sinai Hospital.
A commercial bus passenger, who gave his name as Uche
Magnus, said the doctor jumped into the ocean immediately
after he came down from his vehicle.

Magnus said: “I saw everything clearly from where I sat in
the commercial bus I was in. The man came down from his
jeep and jumped into the water instantly. We all screamed
and begged the commercial bus driver to stop. I saw the
man when he jumped but nobody could identify the spot
where he drowned in the ocean.”
In the ensuing confusion, Ita was said to have called Oji’s
mother and pastor. Both arrived the scene some 30
minutes after. It was learned that the sympathisers at
the scene called the Lagos Police emergency unit, which
deployed Rapid Response Squad (RRS) riders and marine
police to the scene.
When Alabatvnews team got to the scene at 5:25pm, the Divisional
Police Officer (DPO), RRS Area Alpha Commander and
Officer-in-Charge of Marine Police Team were coordinating
rescue operation. The response team of the Lagos State
Emergency Management Authority (LASEMA) was also at
the scene.
