27-YEAR-OLD WOMAN DIES AFTER CAR PLUNGES INTO LAGOS LAGOON. (VIDEO/PHOTO).


27-year-old woman dies after car plunges into Lagos lagoon


A 27-year-old woman, Aisha Maikudi Ibrahim, d!ed after her car reportedly somersaulted and fell into the Lagos Lagoon from the Third Mainland Bridge.


Family sources said that Ms Ibrahim, who lived in Gbagada, was returning from an event in Ikoyi where she worked as a vendor when the crash occurred on Saturday, August 24, 2025. 


“She called her mother around 1 a.m. to say she would be home in 20 minutes,” her aunt, Hadiza Oyewumi, said in a telephone interview with Premium Times on Sunday.


“By 2 a.m., her phone was unreachable. By 4 a.m., her mother became worried, and by 6 a.m., her elder sister and mother set out to look for her.”


Ms Oyewumi explained that on their way to the Island, the family saw emergency officials and bystanders gathered near the bridge.


“When we stopped, we were told there had been an accident. The car’s bumper was visible, and when they checked the plate number, it matched hers,” Ms Oyewumi said.


The family believes the vehicle may have somersaulted at high speed, though the exact circumstances remain unclear.


What they found more painful, however, was the rescue response.


“Officials from LASTMA and the marine police kept saying they were making calls, but no one went into the lagoon,” Ms Oyewumi recounted


“It was her father who eventually negotiated with local divers. They demanded N400,000 before diving in. Only after the payment did they retrieve her body.”


Her body was recovered between 2 p.m. and 3 p.m. on Saturday — nearly half a day after the accident — and buried immediately according to Islamic rites.


In a separate statement on Sunday, Ms Oyewumi described her late niece as “a promising entrepreneur with high aspirations”. Still, she lamented what she called the “commercialisation of human lives” in the failed rescue effort.


“The circumstances of the crash remain unclear, but what is more painful is the response that followed,” the statement.
