A yet-to-be-identified woman who plunged into Lagos lagoon, off the Third Mainland Bridge, was later recovered dead, ThisDay Nigeria reports.

According to an eyewitness, the incident occurred around 4 p.m. at the University of Lagos (UNILAG) waterfront spot on the bridge.

It was gathered that marine police officers stationed in the area swiftly responded to the emergency and subsequently recovered the body despite rescue efforts.

As of press time, the immediate and remote causes of the incident could not be ascertained, but eyewitnesses attributed it to suicide.

Lagos State Police Command Public Relations Officer Benjamin Hundeyin confirmed the incident on Friday.

He stated that, despite the marine police officers’ efforts to save her, medical personnel from the University of Lagos confirmed her death upon arrival.

Hundeyin confirmed that the deceased’s body has since been evacuated to the Infectious Disease Hospital (IDH) Mortuary in Yaba for preservation.

“Today, March 13, 2025, at about 1600 hours, an unidentified woman reportedly jumped from the Third Mainland Bridge into the water near the UNILAG waterfront at approximately 1500 hours.

“She was recovered at the University of Lagos shore slipway by a team of marine police officers stationed in the area. Despite their efforts, she was confirmed dead by a team of UNILAG medical doctors in the presence of officers from the Sabo Police Division.”


“Her body has been evacuated to the Infectious Disease Hospital (IDH) Mortuary in Yaba, Lagos, for preservation.”

May her soul rest in peace. For those going through tough times, trust me, suicide should never be an option.

Better days ahead, be patient

Times are tough.. but this is not the solution.. rather it worsens the situation...

What about the parents, siblings and friends and loved ones.. they will be traumatized for life.

As long as there is life, there is hope. If today is not good, tomorrow will be. Keep the faith. Keep the hope. Keep the love. God will make all things work together for your good.
Never ever give up.

See eeh, people are really going through alot internally, hence we should be kind to everyone because a little act of kindness can go along way. Do you know what it takes for someone to take her own life? Only God knows how long she must have been fighting this inward battle with suicide. But trust me when I say "SUICIDE IS NOT THE BEST OPTION". Look at how beautiful she looks outwardly but she was broken down inwardly. May God grant her eternal rest. Everything is just depressing in this 9ja!!! From news to our government, to economy, to cost of living, to future plans etc. Na wa oooooooo!!!
What do I even know sef aside enlightening my fellow men nationwide with the good news

Pls, let's try as much as possible to be nice to those around us. If you have what it takes, learn a tech skill, crypto, forex and thank me later

I doubt she is the one since the news claims she's unidentified. If I were her, I would sue their ass for this junk journalism.

It is not your life. You have no right to take it. What will you tell your maker that warranted you to take the life that was given to you.

If it is bad today, it will be better tomorrow. He who has life has hope.

This happens everyday in that deadly ocean. They're only able to notice this because it happened during the day. A lot more happens at night when there's nobody to come to their rescue. There is supposed to be a round the clock patrol on that bridge day and night because it's always dry and anything can happen in a matter of seconds.

But because our government are only after money instead of caring for the people they serve, they'd rather send the police to be on guard on their maids, mummies and homes. 2027 is what matters to them now.

Why are they surprised that she died?

We're they expecting her to survive after jumping from that height and also bearing in mind that she does not know how to swim

PTSD. We need more awareness on this subject. Talk to someone after a major traumatic experience don't be silent. Tell your story, speak to a couselor. Run to the holy spirit the great comforter.

Jesus loves you ❤️.
