Some soldiers of the Nigerian Army (NA), operating under 81 Division NA have rescued one Mrs Francesca Spark, who plunged into the Lagos Lagoon around 81 Division Officers’ Mess, Marina Lagos in an attempt to take her life.

The Acting Deputy Director, Army Public Relations, 81 Division Nigerian Army, Lt. Olabisi Olalekan Ayeni, made the disclosure in a statement dated November 6, 2023. He said troops of 65 Battalion NA deployed at the Officers’ Mess, sighted Mrs Spark and quickly used their military ingenuity and rescued her.
