Remember the man who slumped while jugging along Stepping Stone bus stop in Satellite town Lagos yesterday morning? (read
here). The man has died. A close family friend said the man, who has been identified as Sunny Enebong, died yesterday. He probably suffered a heart attack but didn't get help in time because instead of calling an ambulance, passersby surrounded him and was just staring at him. So sad. May his soul rest in peace, Amen.

Don't know what our world is gradually turning into, instead of people helping accident victims, they chose to standby and take pictures that will be uploaded on social media.

Too bad

People need to learn to act instead of standing by. The government or some people should educate the masses on simple first aid methods and #CPR
may his gentle soul rest in perfect peace
An okada rider had an accident, a keke man decided to help. The okada rider died along the way, the keke man stopped, threw out his body on the road and left him dere.
What's wrong with people, they stood starring instead of taking him to the hospital. His life may have been saved if the people around had acted. May his soul rest in peace
Haha:) dats true
Life has no value in Nigeria. This death is an evidence of a failed system.
May his soul RIP.
May God rest his soul
RIP. Which Ambulance
Sad indeed, may his soul rest in peace. Linda take note!
Rip....
Instead of helping...dey prefer to snap pictures...
May his soul rest in peace..Amen

I don't understand why lagosIans choose to stop and stare. Even if you can't help, find someone who can Jesus. I've been in this same situation and I ran to find the nearest person to come check on the man. Simple. What will it take out of anyone. And to think the building they are standing in front of has blood of Jesus at the top. The painful irony.
And people need to be trained in first aid mehn. Urgh! Preventable shit like this just annoys my soul. May he rest in peace.
So sad
So sad! Rip.
God help us. if it were in white country, paramedics would have atleast helped.
Rip sirrrrrr
So sad!
Rip!
The passerby are murderers and most Nigerians are generally heartless to their fellow Nigerians.
And you Linda, stop posting graphic imagines that destroys us as a people online.
You've got power, teach our dull head journalists how it should be done.
I think everyone needs to take a CPR class in Nigeria. This could have been averted if those passersby know what to do. May his soul rest in peace.
We should stop this in this country, watching incident and we can assist.
May his soul rip
Whaoo,so painful. God help the family to bear lost.
Wahoooo, so painful. God help the family to bear the lost
...NA ZO
So sad about dis news..RIP
So sad, may his soul rest in peace
Instead of helping the poor man they were starring and probably taking pictures.
RIP Sir. Look at the name of the place in the background
RIP
So sad! May his soul rest in peace. Amen
People don't bother touching or helping individuals like this again especially in Nigeria since the Ebola disease struck. I pray they don't get into this kind of trouble and have people watch them as they die!
RIP
Eyah so sorry for his death, ,,if u don't exercise ur body na problem if u do na problem, ,,,may God console his family
Linda, I hope you get to read this. I think you could do Nigerians a favor by doing a short video or story perhaps in conjunction with Road Safety on how to respond Emergencies. Nigerians don't know how to respond to emergencies and it makes it appear as if they are evil...just standing and looking. where is the humanity? So perhaps if you can get to teach people what they need to do or who to call it could change things...Linda, Be A Hero
So in Nigeria people don't know how to perform CPR to save fellow human being? Children in daycare in US will show u how to perform CPR to save life. Healthcare workers in Nigeria start to educate the public on live saving skills.
Linda to u, use your blog to educative people and not showing egg plant. Very irritating. If u like post my comment.
Shalom in Nigeria, Amen
sad. may his soul rest in peace.
RIP to him,may God grant his family fortitude to bear ds loss
Pls I urge everyone to go to YouTube or Google to learn how to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). It will save you and your family members when they are in this kind of situation.
Shalom in Nigeria, Amen
RIP
This saying is soon becoming a National Anthemn
Ministry of Health where r you?
Ministry of Information how far?
Simply things like CPR can be taught in different languages and sent through the social media.
And he died out of negligence. May his soul RIP.
#TeamBlessed#
Why are we stupid like that in this country? Surrounding him for pictures am sure.
April Boo CPR ABIIIIIII CHAI SO SAD
Blood of Jesus!
See stupid onlookers. A failed socirty! No common sense. No first aid skills, no effort.
Thank God for me, I was jogging last week, a distance I used to run 6 times but just once last week I almost collapsed. I had to pray my way home. I discovered I had malaria. Please, when you start exercise and you feel uncomfortable or unusual. Abort. Na God save me!
Illiterate Y#####a Nigerians. Na to talk, make mouth they know how to do. No action.
CPR is not enough for heartache
Nigerians can be so mumuish. Imagine they just gathered around just looking at him a d no one helped him.
Y isn't it all does jobless treckers
This is how people die a careless death in ds country. If only we had emergency hot lines instilled into our memories like d whites, someone would hv called an ambulance. Tsheww
This why I am so passionate about teaching basic Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) skills. They just stood by with no clue of what to do.
RIP
RIP to the dead...God knows best
Lagos nawa! Stand dey look too bad, may his soul rest in peace
Wow! sad 1...Rip
Amen.
OKORO UPGRADED**
eyaah! rest in peace
It's not as easy as you guys are saying it,in this our country,anything can happen oo,you might even be on the way to the hospital and the man dies and before you know it police sy you killed him or he might even be pretending and while trying to help you disappear, Abeg we gat to learn our lesson ooo,some people might even be on their way to work sef,God should help us oo
RIP to him
Really sad that most Nigerians prefer to take bizarre pictures and videos instead of offering simple help to a dying man. Sad!
I knew it, our pple r so bad dat dey can stop 2 stare n snap bt can't stop 2 help, really bad. Rip 2 him
Anon 3:02pm, sad but you are right. That is why legislation is key. In the states, they have something called the "Good Samaritan" law, where if a passerby/random person is proven to attempt to help someone in distress or administer something like CPR for example, they are pretty much held harmless for any liability. i.e. If the victim still ends up dying, the law covers them from being charged.
When people go on and on at how moral/religious we are, I call attention to the blatant general disregard for human life in our society. I've seen dead bodies on 3ML, on Osborne laying there for hours. Different stories of how someone just stabbed someone because he took his seat. How a woman poured acid on another or worse still using children for human sacrifice. Zero compassionate!
Even u nd I know if they saw d dead man in is keke he is finished it's nigeria d problem has a deep root and don't blame the keke man Becos no one wil belive him then i.fact Linda wud take it as they found a dead man in keke
wow! RIP
OMG!
Linda, you are crass.
