A 50-year-old man identified as Odomma has committed suicide in the Amakpu Okuku community in Owerri West Local Government Area of Imo State over financial difficulties that left him unable to fend for himself and his family.
Residents of the community found his body dangling in an uncompleted building near his residence today August 22.
According to villagers, Odomma had threatened to commit suicide about three months ago, complaining that his wife and children had allegedly stopped giving him food because he could no longer provide for the family.
A community member, who simply identified as Ikenna, told Punch that the deceased had shared his frustrations with a few friends.
“He said if the situation continued, he would take his life to end the misery. We advised him to report the matter to the village head for settlement. Sadly, he chose this path. Just see how this man ended his life because of money. He could have sold his GP tank or generator to get food, but he decided to take his life. Now others will gather to eat and he won’t be part of it,” Ikenna said.
Odomma, who was widely patronised in the community for water sales priced from ₦100 upwards, was described as hardworking but visibly depressed in recent months.
