Man attempts suic!de in Lekki in broad daylight

Today, a young man who was trying suicide was caught on camera in Lagos, Nigeria’s Lekki neighborhood.

The young man is shown dangling from a rope that has been suspended from a bridge while he is standing on a white bus in a video posted on social media by influencer on the X platform, @Mbahdeyforyou.

When they arrived on the scene, two men jumped onto the bus and struggled with him to prevent him from actually hanging himself.

Nevertheless, the phrase “leave him, leave him” may be heard from time to time in the background of the film.

After a lot of struggling from the young man who did not want to let go, they successfully untied the rope from his neck to put an end to his suicide attempt.

Attached to the bridge and the rope where he attempted to commit suicide was a cardboard with the words “Justice End Game Media”.
