Things took an unexpectedly dramatic turn yesterday when an unknown man committed suicide by taking off his clothes and plunging into the Osun River in Osogbo.
The man was seen by a passerby, John Samuel, who shouted, hoping to stop him from jumping into the river but that proved to be futile as the yet to be identified man ignored him.
John Samuel went further by saying: ‘There was a commercial bus driver coming behind who stopped and wanted to stop him from jumping but before he could alight from his bus, the guy had already jumped into the river’.
