A 25-year-old man identified as Ajayi Kehinde did the unthinkable on Monday evening when he drove his SUV close to a canal, parked and jumped into the canal and drowned.
The incident happened at a canal at Oke Afa in Isolo area in Lagos State, western Nigeria.
He parked his SUV at Pako bus stop opposite the canal before committing suicide.
The incident drew the attention of people who were returning from various work places.
The police later confirmed that Kehinde drowned in the canal and that his body was yet to be recovered.
An eye witnesses said the incident happened at 5.30 p.m. and that onlookers could not rescue him.
The address of the victim is not yet known. His name was known through his identity card found in his car.

As at the time of filing this report, the body had not been recovered as it seemed the police do not have the necessary equipment to do so.
The Lagos State Police Command Public Relations Officer, PPRO, SP Dolapo Bos confirmed the incident.
She said the police were making efforts to recover his body and that necessary steps would be taken to unmask the circumstance that led to such extreme decision by the victim.
P.M. NEWS gathered that his SUV has been recovered and parked at the police station.

That's the result of yahoo+ .. If you wan do yahoo, do clean one. Don't do blood ritual and be deceiving yourself that you are doing yahoo. When the devil is tired of drinking goat and cow blood, one day he will demand human blood and if you are not able to provide it, he will drink your own blood by force. A word is enough for the wise!

Buarri is working. Oba Lagoon is working.

Oba said, if APC doesn't win, some people will be forced into the lagoon.

Now APC has won, people are willingly entering lagoon.
