46-Year-Old Man Commits Suicide Over Pressure To Get Married, Drops Note (Photos)

A 46-Year-Old Uber Driver, Muftau Abiodun Musa, has reportedly committed suicide in Osogbo, Osun State capital.

Sources revealed that his actions may not be unconnected to pressure from family members to get married.

The deceased, who left a note directing whosoever found his remains to check further details, indicated on his phone that his people could be contacted without hindrance, adding that nobody should cry over his demise.

It was gathered that the man had no wife or kids and had been battling depression for the past five years.

The source revealed that in December 2023, he attempted to hang himself but was stopped by his neighbours.

He noted that Musa also made another attempt by drinking insecticide and pesticide, which led to his admittance in hospital for two months.

Consequent to this attempt, the deceased had to relocate to his mother’s place for close monitoring.

The source also revealed that after he was discharged from the hospital, his family continued to mount pressure on him to get married and have kids, which led him to leave the house.

According to the Source: “In his quest for a new house, someone sublet one of the rooms in her home to him. He has been in that house since May 2024.

“The house rent expired in December, but he was given until the end of January to vacate, as the house owner wanted to renovate the house.

“The person who sublet the house told him three days ago to find another house, as the owner had told them to leave. He became depressed and hanged himself.”

The Source revealed that the Osun State Police Command has taken over the matter.
