Security operatives in Ogun have arrested a man who allegedly attempted to commit suicide over his inability to refund a N50,000 ‘loan.

The man was arrested by the Anti-Vandal Team of Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), Ogun Command, while he was trying to hang himself in a bush on Ayetoro Road, Abeokuta.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) learnt that the man had tied a rope to a tree and was about hanging himself when a member of the NSCDC team saw him.

The man, a 34-year old father of five, later told newsmen that he worked with Traffic Compliance and Enforcement Agency (TRACE) in Ogun but was sacked.

He explained that his inability to perform his responsibility as the head of the family led him to attempt suicide.

He added that his failure to pay the ‘loan from LAPO, a private micro-credit lending organisation, forced him to take the decision to take his life.

“I am a 200 level drop-out of Federal College of Education, Osiele, I dropped out because I could not get financial assistance to continue.

“Due to the health problem of my child in 2008, I had to drop out so that I could have some money to take care of my sick child.

“But, we later lost the child in 2009 because we were unable to pay some hospital bills after people had helped us in raising money for the surgery.

“I was duped by some people and they even threatened me which made me to leave Abeokuta for Akwa-Ibom state.

‘’It was when I came back after a year that I discovered I had been sacked from TRACE.

“I am frustrated because am owing a lot of people ranging from house bill to electricity bill and some other bills.

‘’I am ashamed of myself because am not a responsible man, I cannot cater for my family as a head.

“The LAPO officials have used OPC (Odua Peoples Congress) to arrest my wife because of the money, if not for the help of my pastor.

”Am just frustrated because I have to pay N3,000 every Friday and I am presently jobless. And I still have like N24,000 to balance .

“What added to my conclusion to commit suicide was due to my inability to refund the ‘LAPO’ loan I collected when I wanted to start my tricycle business.

”The officials of the LAPO have been giving my family tough times for sometimes now because, I cannot afford to be repaying N3,000 every Friday,” he said.

He, however, said he regretted his action and wanted a second chance in life.

“I wish to go back to school; I want the government to help me with a job that can cater for my family and other things that are important,” the man said.

Meanwhile, the Public Relations Officer of NSCDC, Ogbonnaya Dyke described it as a crime against the state for someone to try to take his life.

Dyke added that the suspect would be handed over to the police, after the NSCDC Intelligence Unit had concluded its work.

“Since the matter is under our Crisis Management Team, we have to swing into action to address the situation.

”Necessary actions will be taken by the Corps in addressing the situation. He is going to be handed over to the police after our intelligence Unit has done its work,” he said.

He was arrested for trying to commit suicide?

This would have been hilarious, if not for the seriousness of the situation. A man that is suppose to be offered a comprehensive medical/mental evaluation, and professional assistance/counselling given to him to dissuade him from taking his life is locked up?this is a tragedy in many fronts.

This is a man that is clearly trying to make something out of his life, but keeps running into misfortune. Suicide is never an option, and i plead with anybody feeling suicidal to always banish that thought from their minds.

It will one day get better.

Meanwhile,anybody knows how to get in touch with this LAPO company?Public Relations Officer of NSCDC, Ogbonnaya Dyke or even the man himself or his family?the article omitted his name, or did i miss it?

I was close to feeling compassion . then i saw this fool was a a father of FIVE children

1.you are poor and had 1 2 3 4 5 children.

2.you then tried to commit suicide to leave the children who didn't beg you to father them ...innocent children brought into this world because you are so much of an idiot not to use protection

3.every suitable punishment I can think of for you would leave you badly hurt not to be able to take care of the 5 children.

4.people like him would be the ones that shout bad government ..bad Nigeria...

5. As much of an insufferable idiot that he is the best thing to do will be to set him up with a job ...

Advice:DO NOT GIVE BIRTH TO CHILDREN IF YOU CANT TRAIN THEM I am focusing on the children because they stand the most to lose from these types of situations

It's quite unfortunate.
Just 50k.

First, guys please if you are not financially buoyant enough, don't get married. And don't even dare have children.

What are they coming to the world to do? Suffer? Look at what this guy has taken his family through. Assuming he was successful in his suicide attempt, that will be double tragedy.

The economy is bad and people are suffering but it hasn't gotten to suicide levels.

As someone who has suffered from depression before, I know how it feels.

What brought me out is the thought that I was being selfish. People who commit suicide are selfish. Think of the pain those you leave behind will go through. The stigma. The perception of people that they are the ones that drive you to the point madness.

Don't do it. Don't be selfish. Your life is not yours alone to live. So many people are connected to you. And someone out there cares.

So, he went about impregnating a woman when he was still in school and had no source of income?

People will just make careless decisions in their youth and bring misfortune upon themselves. How will you run away from your job because you are owing debts, then, come back and expect to meet it waiting?

Some people are undeserving of goodwill, case in point, this poor excuse of a man
