A 28-year-old photography student from Nigeria allegedly committed suicide after jumping off the second floor of his rented accommodation in Sector 41. Police said preliminary probe suggests that the deceased, Kelvin Lakoju, was in depression.
Meanwhile, the Nigerian Embassy and the deceased's family have been informed about the incident.

Kelvin had been living in Noida since 2009 and was pursuing a photography course from an institute in Film City.
Cops said he jumped off around 11pm on Wednesday, January 2nd. "We have questioned some people and came to know that he was upset for some reasons," said deputy SP, S Chinappa.

"His friends said Kelvin was good at studies. Some personal problem could be the reason for committing suicide," said a senior police officer. An FIR has been lodged with Sector 39 police station.

naaaah!

even if he was thrown , what do we expect India police to say ?in order to kill the story they will say he took a dive thinking he was jumping into a swimming pool , i have been to India before and i know how corrupt the system is over there ,it is a crime area from drugs to fake currencies and cyber crime , and mos of our youth that are there are into these deals to survive . well like i said earlier we will never know the truth , the guy is dead so so sad

Chei!

Dis fineboi don put him peeps for deep sorrow for dis new year!!

Either way, suicide or not, I feel really sad right about now...
So much potential, so much hope, lotsa pride in you from your
Family and friends back in Naija,

If na you jump, why now? You should have sought out a human encouragement in a really good friend and hung in there!
If, as I suspect, there is foul play,

Almighty God will get your killers!!

RIP.
