A 45-year-old man identified simply as Kazeem, has met his death in a river at Odo Tente, a boundary community between Lagos and Ogun states.
Report said Kazeem dived into the river after he took a hard drug suspected to be Colorado.
According to the account given by Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, Benjamin Hundeyin, the incident happened on Friday, around 11 am.
Hundeyin said the drug caused the deceased to start misbehaving and became uncontrollably.
In the troubling state he reportedly jumped into the river.
“On 11/10/2024 at about 11 am, a complainant reported at the Alagbado Division that one Kazeem, ‘M’, aged 45, under the influence of a hard drug suspected to be Colorado, ran uncontrollably and jumped into a river at the Odo Tente boundary between Lagos and Ogun states. Sequel to this, the victim drowned and died,” Hundeyin wrote.
