SPIRITUAL ATTACK! Man dies inside well in Lagos
A middle-aged man, identified as Agbese Agbeko, fell to his death while he was working at Olusesi Street, Ile-Iwe bus-stop, in Ikotun area of Lagos State.
The deceased who is a plumber was trying to fix a pipe outside a well when he suddenly slipped into the well.
Despite his screams for help, he died before residents could come to his resue.
According to the Guardian, the residents claimed the well wasn’t so deep for him to have drowned quickly but must have sustained severe injuries from the fall, which hastened his death.

Some residents also claimed that it was a spiritual attack.
Some officials of the Lagos State Emergency Management Agency (LASEMA) alongside other emergency responders, including the Lagos Fire Service men, Lagos Neighbourhood Safety Corps (LNSC) and the Nigerian Police, were later seen at the scene of the accident where Agbeko was later confirmed dead after his body was retrieved from the well.
The body was recovered and handed over to a police inspector from the Ikotun Division of the Nigeria Police Force for further investigations.
