A Young man known as Saifullahi has committed suicide over his inability to pay the N250,000 debts he owed to several people.
It was gathered that this happened in Shata community in Bosso Local Government Area of Niger State.
Saifullahi’s body was found hanging from a rope in his bedroom by his neighbors on Monday afternoon, thereby throwing the community residents in a state of shock and disbelief.
Speaking to newsmen, Saifullahi’s girlfriend identified as Rebecca claimed that she saw the deceased alive when he visited her saying that he was very disturbed.
She said the deceased told her that he has accumulated a debt of N250,000 and did not know how he would pay his debts as the debtors have begun asking for their monies.
“The debts were causing him a lot of concerns and he was in great distress. I tried to assure him that the situation of things would improve, I did not know he would kill himself,” she said.
Shata residents said the deceased didn’t not leave a suicide note.
