A middle-aged man, identified as Ogheneovo has committed suicide after allegedly being abandoned by his wife and children.
Ogheneovo allegedly
injected himself with a killer insecticide at his residence along Gesimisi Street, Okumagba Layout in Warri South Local Government Area of Delta State.
Tori News reported that he left no suicide note to explain his action.
There are speculations that Ogheneovo's action might be linked to desertion by his wife and children since January, following his alcohol addiction and physical assault on the woman.
One of his neighbors said “The wife, who could no longer condone the abuse, left with her three children, but left behind the eldest one.”
Before his death Ogheneovo reportedly made a distress call to his son, asking him to call back home, but the son could not return the call immediately, as he was very busy attending to customers at his shop.
The son, later hurried home when his father failed to respond to his calls and found him lying lifeless on the bed with a can of insecticides beside him.
Neighbors disclosed that Ogheneovo had in the past attempted to hang himself but was stopped and rescued by a neighbor.
Crime.
