The incident happened at Bola Akinlere Street by Papa Major bus stop off Ijegun Road, ijegun, Lagos.

The 30-year old Olumide Akinlere, was said to have attempted suicide but was rescued by the friend’s mother who was around. She raised alarm and Olumide was prevented from killing himself but by then he had already inflicted injury on himself.
