Lagos State Police Commissioner, Edgal
Imohimi has finally spoken on reports making rounds recently of a woman who
allegedly parked her Ford SUV and jumped off the 3rd mainland bridge
into the Lagos Lagoon.
Addressing news men at the Police Headquarters,
Ikeja during a briefing held today June 21, 2018, CP Edgal noted that no
concrete evidence had been established in the case.
The Commissioner said ‘‘It was just
hear-say that it was a woman. One or two of the supposed witnesses said it was
a man. Another said it was an Uber that brought her, how that person knew it
was an Uber ride still beats my imagination because the vehicle did not stop.’’
‘‘One thing is certain and that is the
report from my Marine Unit; all our divers were deployed to the scene. If someone
goes into the Lagoon, within 2 days that body will be washed out, it might be
mutilated but the body will float. Up till now, as I speak to you, we don’t have
a body and I will not confirm any deaths until I see a body, dead or alive.’’
‘‘The search is still on, nobody has
officially come forward to agree that it is either their daughter, mum, wife or
friend that jumped in with evidence. I don’t want anyone to presume, as soon as
I have credible information concerning that matter I will give it to the press.’’
He concluded.
