FOLAJIMI OLUBUMNI-ADEWOLE: PLAQUE UNVEILED FOR HERO WHO DIED TRYING TO SAVE WOMAN FROM RIVER THAMES

A plaque has been unveiled for a young man who died after jumping into the River Thames to save a woman.

Folajimi Olubunmi-Adewole, also known as Jimi, was 20 years old when he and another man bravely went into the Thames in April 2021 in an attempt to save a woman.

Coastguard and police marine units arrived at the scene shortly after, but were only able to save the woman and the second man.

Now to pay tribute to Jimi and his bravery, a plaque has been unveiled in Cathedral Square by London Bridge close to where he jumped in.

A ceremony for the unveiling of the plaque was held today (January 22).

Jimi’s mother, Olasunkanmi, said she was “so happy” to see the tribute.

“Jimi is a hero and that’s why everyone has come here today,” she said. “I’m so grateful.”

The Mayor of London Sadiq Khan, also attended the ceremony, described Jimi as a “symbol of light”.
