A Nigerian cyclists has died of stab wounds inflicted on him by hoodlums believed to be after his valuables in Lagos.
Afolabi Mabogunje was waiting for fellow cyclists at Shodex, Anthony, Lagos last Thursday, September 9, 2021.
He reportedly applied pressure to the stab wound to stop or at least slow down the bleeding and then cycled back to Gbagada General hospital.
His wife, a medical doctor, attended to him together with her colleagues, a friend named Dr Yinka Awoyemi said.
He was then transferred to another hospital where he was operated on.
Sadly, the “jugular vein had been breached” the friend said, and Mabogunje, aka Mabogs, died in the early hours of today.
The cyclist community have been paying him tribute on Facebook post.
