Nigeria - A 15-year-old secondary school teenager, Paschal Egbosimba, last weekend committed suicide at Uratta, Owerri in Imo State.
According to Vanguard, the boy, a native of Ntueke, Ideato South LGA of the state, was living with his mother and siblings around Toronto Junction, before suddenly "deciding" to hang himself.
“Paschal was a senior secondary school student of Passion Model Secondary School, Egbu. He used an electric extension cable to hang himself from a ceiling fan, when his mother was away for a night vigil,” a witness said.
The late boy’s mother, who wept uncontrollably, was overheard saying she never scolded the deceased, adding that there was no reason for him to have hanged himself.
“The incident was very shocking. It has remained a mystery till now, especially as the young boy was neither troublesome nor noisy,” another witness said.
