Speaking with Saturday Sun, residents of the area where the deceased has being attempting suicide for three years over his inability to free himself from poverty. continue...
“He used to complain about the fact that he was very poor and living a
wretched life, that he wasn’t making money to take care of himself. Two
months ago, he had an okada (motorcycle) accident that almost claimed
his life. He was moved out of the community for
treatment. Two weeks ago, we learnt that he was dead but just three
days ago, we sighted him in the community. Yesterday (Thursday), people
heard him saying that by today (Friday) the people of Ayede community
would witness an amazing drama. No one really read any meaning to what
he was saying. We didn’t know that he was referring to this suicidal action”, a resident of the area and neighbour to Mundiu, who craved anonymity told Saturday Sun.
Another neighbour of the deceased said that Mundiu was found dead by one
of his neighbours, a deaf, simply identified as Taiwo.
“It was past 12 midnight this morning, a deaf neighbour of the deceased, who
we call Taiwo, raised the alarm that he saw something strange and
alerted others to come and see it. We were asking him what it was that
happened but because he could not hear us, he didn’t answer us. All we
did was to just follow him to where he was directing our attention to.
Eventually, he took us to where the deceased had hanged himself. He was
already dead by that time. So, we just left him as you have seen him.
We immediately called the police but as you can see, they haven’t come.
Mundiu had attempted suicide two times before now. The first time,
he had tried to hang himself but thankfully, his father caught him and
stopped it. Since then, his father had kept the rope as an object of
remembrance. Now his father is dead and could not witness this
abominable act, he has eventually committed.His second attempt at
killing himself was a time we were told he just jumped into a river.
That happened in Lokoja, Kogi State. God had brought people on time to
rescue him. This was his third time and no one was there to stop him, “
