Two Siblings Drown At Lagos Beach While Celebrating Christmas
Femi Adegboyega, 26, and Ibukun Adegboyega, 23, perished in the Amuwo-Odofin region of Lagos State while swimming at Ibeshe Beach.
Biztellers learned that the event occurred at approximately 6:00 p.m. on Christmas Day.
Additionally, information was obtained indicating that the victims were siblings who lived in the state’s FESTAC Town region and that they had been swimming with friends prior to the tragedy.
Seun, an eyewitness who claimed to have been with them prior to the catastrophe, related the story and offered the parents of the deceased his regrets.
He said, “We were swimming together on the beach. To be honest, I do not understand how it happened because we were together and all of a sudden they both drowned. I wonder how their parents will feel now because they are brothers and I also feel terrible because we could not help.”
Another eyewitness identified as Femi said all efforts by the friends and divers of the beach to rescue the siblings proved abortive.
Femi added, “All efforts by his friends and local divers to rescue them from Ibeshe Beach did not work. The divers searched the beach but their bodies have not been found.
“We swam for a long time but to no avail. I strongly believe their bodies will be found soon. We informed the police about it quickly before the situation escalated. I pray their bodies will be found. I pray everything works well.”
When reached, Benjamin Hundeyin, the public relations officer for the state police, verified the event and revealed that divers had been engaged to locate the remains while the inquiry was still ongoing. He also mentioned that the family of the dead had already been informed.

The Senior Pastor of Freedom Life International Christian Center, Richard Tochukwu, has declared that gospel music possesses the spiritual capacity to transform Nigeria, describing it as a divine instrument capable of restoring hope and unity in the nation.
Speaking during an interaction with journalists, the cleric said music inspired by God’s Word can positively influence Nigeria’s spiritual and socio-political landscape by promoting peace, comfort and moral revival.

“Gospel music is not just sound; it carries power. When songs are inspired by Scripture, they can heal hearts, restore faith and redirect a nation toward righteousness,” he said.
Pastor Tochukwu made the remarks while discussing his latest worship single, “I Want To Pray,” a spiritually reflective song produced by Audio5.
He explained that the track was created to encourage believers to remain steadfast in prayer and maintain consistent fellowship with God.
The song draws inspiration from Luke 18:1, which urges believers to pray always and not lose heart.
A spiritual son of Paul Enenche, Pastor Tochukwu revealed that most of his songs are birthed from deep study of Scripture.
“Sometimes while studying or preaching from a passage, a melody begins to flow. The lyrics are drawn directly from the Word. Our songs are intentional; they carry the same message we preach,” he explained.
Reflecting on his journey, he recounted beginning as a drummer who also sang before discovering what he described as a divine instruction to minister through music.
“I realised that you don’t minister only through preaching. God made me understand that songs are another channel through which His Word can reach people. Every release is backed by Scripture,” he added.
Pastor Tochukwu currently serves in Lagos, combining pastoral leadership with music ministry.
The audio and video for “I Want To Pray” are now available on major digital streaming platforms.
