MAN COMMITS SUICIDE OVER 25,000NAIRA BANK LOAN.

One Mr. Adeyinka Badejo, 35, a resident of Kubwa, a satellite town in Bwari Area Council of the Federal
Capital Territory (FCT), on Tuesday, reportedly hung himself to death over N25, 000 bank loan.
The deceased until his death, sold second-hand clothes ‘Okirika’,
at the Kubwa village market and had two children, City News
reports.
According to reports, Badejo had borrowed the sum of N150,000
from a micro finance bank in Kubwa, but his younger brother,
Adeyinka Emmanuel had assisted in paying part of the borrowed
money, leaving him with just N25,000 to complete the payment.
Emmanuel said things were not going well for his elder brother and
was certain the debt was responsible for the brother committing
suicide.
“We were very close siblings. He once jokingly told me that he
would hang himself because of the pressure he was getting from
the bank to return the borrowed money. But I always told him
everything would be okay. I never knew he meant his words.
Maybe if I had known, I would have tried to stop him. I pray his
soul rests in peace,” Emmanuel said amid tears.
The deceased wife, Mrs. Grace Adeyinka said she noticed her
husband’s body dangling inside their sitting room when she went
to use the toilet in the morning and quickly brought him down and
rushed him to the emergency unit of the Kubwa General Hospital
where he was confirmed dead.
Grace said, “I woke up around 5a.m. to use the toilet and found
out that the cloth I used to cover our five-year-old child was
missing, and my husband too was not by my side in bed.
“When I went to the living room, I discovered that it was the cloth
he used to hang himself,” Grace noted.
The head of Accident and Emergency Unit of the hospital, Paul
Olise, confirmed the incident.
“His remains have since been taken to the morgue,” Olise said.
