Ugwoke Jerry, a young Nigerian graduate, has killed himself.
He committed suicide in Nsukka, Enugu State.
Giotv reports that Jerry was found hanging on a tree by his colleagues inside a forest in the community, a discovery which caused tension among the students.
Giotv gathered that Jerry was a graduate of Combined Arts (English/History) from the University of Nigeria, Nsukka.
Before his death, the deceased had sent an emotional message to his mother on why he decided to commit suicide.
“You are the best mother ever, in this world. Am sorry for disappointing you. Please.” he said in the message to his mother.
The reason for his action remained unknown.
“It’s so sad, this guy is my colleague. He was lucky to graduate and had also completed his National Youths Service Corps. Some people are still in school finding how to graduate but he was even fortunate,” a source lamented.
The school authorities and Jerry’s family could not yet be reached to comment on the incident.
Suicide among university students in Nigeria has lately become a disturbing trend.
