It
was a tragic day for the people of Akanyin street, Shibibiri Rd, Ilemba
in Ojo, Ajamgbadi area of Lagos yesterday morning as one of the
residents of the area was found with his head deep down in a well.
The
man who was later recognized as a resident of the area was said to have
been in the well for quite a while as many of the tenants who are early
users of water had fetched from the well for various purposes before
the corpse was noticed to be in the uncovered well.
The
dead body which was later identified to be a carpenter whose wife
jilted him recently. Although many of the residents claimed he was seen
drunk the previous day, no one could however explain what really
happened that got him into the well. Linda Ikeji reports that the
Nigerian Security And Civil Defence Corps in the area have however
stepped into the case for proper investigation of the matter. It would
be recalled that
Four people, including two police officers, were recently killed by
armed robbers as they attacked a bank in the Alaba International Market
in Ojo area of Lagos.
