A man believed to be in his early 20s on Wednesday afternoon, set himself ablaze in the Omole Phase 1 area of Ojodu, Lagos.
The man, whose identity has not be confirmed, armed himself with a gallon of petrol and lighter and started narrating how Nigerians were going through hardship.
A witness, Ben Chinedu, told Daily Sun that: “I was (passing at the) Gate when I saw a crowd and I stopped to make enquiries. I saw a young man in his 20s; he was armed with a gallon of fuel.
He was shouting on top of his voice, saying that he was tired of life. He narrated how he had been running from one person to other for assistance and everyone was saying things were difficult. He told people who cared to listen that the country was under a spell that cannot be cleansed.
“He said there was no hope and future for the youth, he could no longer bear the ‘suffering-and-smiling’ syndrome and pretence showed by most people. He threatened to kill himself, but people thought he was making empty threats.
He poured the liquid on his body and brought out a lighter. He ignited fire on his body and he was burning. We started pouring water on him, but the fire had done enough damage before we put it out. We called the police who came to the scene and picked the man who was unconscious by then. We don’t know the man and where he came from.”
Police public relations officer, CSP Chike Oti, who confirmed the story, said the man was being treated at the Lagos State Emergency Centre, 7-Up area.
Oti said: “Divisional Police Officer, Ojodu, received a distress call that a man set himself ablaze and raced to the scene with some officers. When the police arrived, they put out the fire and rushed the man to the Lagos State Emergency Centre, where he is being treated.
The man is still unconscious as he received third-degree burns. He is still unconscious as I am talking to you. The Commissioner of Police directed the DPO in charge of Ojodu to take the man who attempted suicide to the hospital.
“It is a suicide attempt as people saw him set himself ablaze. It was not the usual jungle justice by a mob.
“He was the person who planned how to kill himself. The CP has ordered the DPO to investigate and find out who the man is and why he decided to take his life in a most agonising manner. We also call on members of the public who are looking for their missing relations to contact the Ojodu Police Station or the PPRO’s office to ascertain who the man is.”
Senator Dino Melaye is one of those very close to Senate President Bukola Saraki, so you can understand his excitement

Cristiano Ronaldo was left frustrated and pained as his dream came to an end at the FIFA World Cup 2018 but the Portugal and Real Madrid superstar still managed to win hearts in a tense match against Uruguay in the round of 16 at Sochi’s Fisht Stadium on Saturday.
Cavani scored twice – in the seventh minute and 62nd minute – to earn Uruguay a place in the quarter-final berth against France, who earlier overcame 2014 runners-up Argentina 4-3 in a goal-fest. Edinson Cavani, the 31-year-old Paris Saint-Germain striker spread fear in the Portuguese area – he and Luis Suarez combined brilliantly to put fear deep into the hearts of the opposition defenders.
Ronaldo, meanwhile, was marked superbly by Uruguayan defenders, who gave nothing away. However, in a heart-warming gesture, Ronaldo came forward to help Cavani walk off the field after he picked up an injury in the 74th minute. By then, Portugal were trailing 1-2 and the World Cup dream was quickly slipping away.
Cristiano Ronaldo has thanked Portugal fans for their support at the World Cup despite Portugal being kicked out. Ronaldo was powerless to stop European champions Portugal exiting Russia 2018 on Saturday as Edinson Cavani’s brace sent Uruguay into the quarter-finals. That meant Ronaldo and his great rival Lionel Messi, whose Argentina side lost 4-2 to France, were both knocked out of what could be their final World Cup on the same day.
Ronaldo opted not to discuss his future in the aftermath of the defeat, although Portugal coach Fernando Santos said he hopes the Real Madrid superstar will be available for the start of the Nations League in September.Ronaldo took to social media to thank Portugal supporters for their backing at the World Cup.”Your support was and always will be fundamental to us,” Ronaldo wrote on Instagram alongside the Portuguese flag. Thank you Portugal.”

A nurse has been caught in the act performing surgery on a patient in an Oyo State hospital, an act that has brought about some serious consequences.
The Oyo state’s Task Force on Private Health Facilities, on Wednesday, closed a hospital in Iseyin after the nurse was found on duty carrying out surgery on a patient.
This is coming after the state government resolved to sanitise the private health sector.
According to Tribune, the task force, which got to the Agbejemate Hospital and Maternity Centre in Iseyin at about 1:00p.m, met the male nurse in theatre carrying out a hernia surgery on a patient.
The nurse, who is also the owner of the hospital, is a retired theatre nurse. He was subsequently served a notice to report at the Oyo State Ministry of Health.
Chairman of the task force, Dr Ayoola, who said visitations had also been made to hospitals in Ibadan and Oyo town, declared that the ministry daily received reports on medical negligence and deaths arising from unqualified medical practitioners in the state.
The Response Unit of the Fire and Rescue Team of the Lagos State Emergency Management Agency - LASEMA - were seen on a rescue operation as a man accidentally fell into a well at Ipaja, Ayobo.
No confirmation yet on if they were able to resuscitate him. More photos...

Trying to solve a question or a problem? Grandma knows best.
CBS New York reports one special grandmother is lending 100 years of wisdom to strangers on New York City's Upper West Side. Her makeshift office attracts a steady stream of New Yorkers, anxiously awaiting a chat with the woman who has 10 decades of life experience.
Inside the cardboard cut-out, you'll find a laptop with 100-year-old grandmother Eileen Wilkinson waiting to chat.
She may live clear across the country in Washington state, but thanks to her grandson, Mike Matthews — who is an adjunct social media professor at New York University – she's now sharing words of wisdom for free.
"You can be anything you want," Wilkinson said. "Don't complain about anything. You do something about it."
Over the past three months, hundreds of people have stopped by, chatting with Wilkinson like they were old friends.
Wilkinson spent most of her life as a homemaker and mother. She says truly listening gives her advice-giving ability a personal touch. And she's honest.
Wilkinson hosts Facebook Live chats and has an Instagram account.
She will turn 101 years old in January, and says her secret to longevity is living a good, clean life.
