The management and owners of Elegushi beach have decided to Shut down activities on the beach in honour of the two Unilag Students who drowned there.

Asiwaju of Ikate Land, Prince Olanrewaju Elegushi speaking to a briefing said that the family thought it prudent to not only show support to the families of the deceased but also to Shut down.

The Asiwaju however said that there was every security apparatus in place at the beach and that the death of the students was not due to negligence.

“We may not have the best practices when it comes to beach management, but I can tell you that the safety measures at the Elegushi beach will be difficult to come about anywhere else around. This is evidenced by the prompt response of our lifeguards who quickly dived into the water to rescue the victims. None of them died on the spot as being peddled around.

“Two things happened and it is unfortunate that we may have to reopen wounds here again; the red flag was on as at the time the victims were going for swimming and our guards did warn them, but they insisted. Apart from that, immediately they were rescued, rather than allowing the experts to do their recovery work, their friends hijacked them from our team and drove them away. It is very sad and we once again commiserate with the family,” Elegushi said.
