Medical Doctor Commits Suicide by dyemida(m): 10:56am On Aug 24, 2013
A medical doctor who is also the medical director of City Convalescent Clinic, committed Suicide yesterday at his residence, 13, Aliu Street, Kosofe by Ile-Iwe Bus-stop, Ketu, Lagos.

The body of the deceased was found by his wife dangling from the ceiling fan in one of the rooms of their two-storey building, which also houses a clinic.

Reasons why he took his life was not known as no note was left behind. It was gathered from a neighbour of the deceased that they woke up this morning and heard people wailing from the clinic and when they got there the wife of the deceased, who wept uncontrollably, narrated how she discovered the lifeless body of her late husband hanging from the ceiling this morning.

Disu said from what he gathered from the widow, they both slept together in one of their rooms but when she noticed that the deceased was no longer with her, she decided to check in the vacant rooms.

Disu stated further that the wife, while wailing, said she couldn’t phantom why her middle-aged husband would decide to commit suicide.

“The wife of the deceased is yet to come to terms with the reality that her husband is no more. From what she said, her late husband left her in their room. And after waiting for a while, she decided to look for her husband only for her to find the lifeless body hanging from a ceiling fan in an adjoining room,” Disu said

A woman, identified as Iya Kafayat, described the deceased as an easy going man who was always ready to treat an ailing patient that comes to his hospital.

Iya Kafayat, who was close to tears while speaking with our correspondent, wondered what could have prompted the deceased to take his life. “I don’t think it is an ordinary thing. Maybe he was charmed into committing suicide but I don’t want to believe that because only the Almighty Allah knows what actually went wrong,” she said.

One of the onlookers in front of the clinic, Okechukwu Obinna said he is still in shock over why a loving man would decide to commit suicide, when things are apparently going on well for him.

An elderly woman who had known the deceased for close to two decades said the late Medical Director could have killed himself as a result of pressure from his erstwhile wife.

According to her, the deceased was married to his first wife for 10 years without her bearing him a child.

“He had to marry the present wife who bore him the two kids he left behind,” the woman said.

She added that the hospital, where the deceased committed suicide, had been shut for close to 15 years before it was reopened.
God help us oo..

Na wa o!
This suicide thing is becoming too rampant these days.
That is how someone close to our house also committed suicide last week, and this is a person that is apparently living comfortably, at least, with more than 4 beautiful cars, even an SUV is included, when we heard the wife's wailing, we never believed the man could do such a thing, may God help us o.
Lessons to be learned, everyone has one thing or the other that is eating him/her up inside the house, we are only covering up, but our attitude to life decides how we are going to handle it.
Secondly, we shouldn't judge books by the cover, not everyone we think is comfortable is really comfortable, we shouldn't conclude about anyone at all as being happy.
Thirdly, polygamous family is dreadful and always full of evil things, from this story now, the man is polygamous and also, from the one that happened in our area, the man also is polygamous, it was after his death that we started hearing some horrible news concerning his family.
So many dreadful things are happening these days, may God just help us to have the right orientation and disposition about life and living.
May his soul rest in peace and may God console the family he left behind. Amen.
