A yet-to-be identified skitmaker has reportedly lost his life while shooting contents in Lagos lagoon.
A Nigerian man who shared the story on X alleged the other skitmakers present when the incident happened were arrested and handed to security agents.
‘’Sad evening here. Skitmaking gone wrong.
Someone drowned in the Lagoon that borders my estate this evening.
They were acting skit.
Yet to be found.
Second case of drowning in three days.
I’m now beginning to think there is at least one case of drowning in Lagoon across Lagos on daily basis. Because if this small stretch of Lagoon (less than two kilometers) records casualty almost every other week (mostly site workers that go to swim after work, security personnel, dredging workers etc), I wonder how it is in the 99.9% of other Lagoon banks around Lagos.
It’s no longer even news here. You just step out of your house and casually hear, “someone drowned in Osa today”.
I also take evening walk to the bank of the Lagoon at least once in two weeks, but I don’t step into water for any reason.
One can only pray – against hope – that the young skitmaker currently in the water returns alive!
PS: Estate security personnel have arrested the other skitmakers and handed them over to government law enforcement agency.”
