Lagos law student dies after jumping from four-storey building

A 23-year-old law student, Faith Alayande, died in a suspected suicide incident at the Nigerian Law School hostel in Victoria Island, Lagos, after reportedly jumping from the rooftop of a four-storey building. The Lagos State Police Command confirmed the incident, stating that Alayande was found unresponsive in the hostel premises on Friday, August 7, 2026, and a suicide note was discovered before her body was taken to a morgue for preservation.

This is not the first reported case of a Nigerian Law School student dying by suicide, as a similar incident involving Ayomiposi Ojajuni in December 2025 was also reported by PUNCH Metro.
