A Lagos man, simply identified as Kazeem, has drowned after jumping into a river, reportedly under the influence of hard drugs.
The incident occurred at Odo Tente, a boundary area in the state, yesterday, Sunday.
Kazeem had allegedly consumed a substance believed to be a type of hard drug, possibly “Colorado,” before exhibiting erratic behaviour.
