Today October 4th 2023, a young man was captured on camera in the Lekki region of Lagos, Nigeria, making an attempt to take his own life.
In the video that surfaced online, the young man is seen hanging from a rope that has been suspended from a bridge while he is standing on a white bus.
Two men who were at the scene immediately took to action, climbing the bus and struggling with him to make sure he didn’t go through with hanging himself.
Although, in the background of the video, some people can be heard saying “leave him, leave him”.
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”.
