Buhari should be banned instead.

The way suicides have made it first choice, Sniper insecticide may just be attracting unhealthy attention from the authorities. Many Nigerians committing suicide have taken to gulping down the substance, with a highly fatal result.

Relatively new in the market, Sniper appears to have been formulated along the line of Otapiapia, which was also a local anti-pest solution. Otapiapia also in the 1980s and 1990s became a favourite suicide tool, especially in the South-East. Sniper seems to have taken over.

Should the government clamp down on Sniper, it may be shutting down a good business, resulting in job losses, investment trapping, with wide implications for those servicing and benefiting down the product's supply chain.

But this raises several questions.

Is there an iron-clad case to call for banning the production and sales of Sniper?

Does Sniper account for the majority of deaths and is Sniper the only way out for people bent on committing harakiri?

Should the manufacturers of Sniper be blamed for the abuse of their highly effective insecticide?

What will happen should Sniper be banned and depressed and desperate people embrace some other solutions?

Sniper is a case of one million ways to die choose one. When there is a will, there is a way.

Let us ban suicide instead.

Because Sniper is abused does not mean that it should be banned. Tramadol taken as drug is a strong pain reliever, so should tramadol be banned?

Re: Suicide And Sniper by AK481(m): 10:17am On May 22, 2019
Dangerous substances that can lead to suicide should not be easily assessible,sniper is very assesible.

I think the govt should ask sniper company to reduce the concentration of sniper because even people using it to kill mosquitoes dilute it with kerosine.

If it’s going to be very assisble then it should be diluted.

As a farmer I know there are many farm pesticides that are fatal if ingested by humans deliberately and in big quantities,action 40,magicforce, best action,crush,doom,and the most toxic is a soil treatment called wormforce,these pesticides are meant to be used as soil fumigates and killing harmful pests/insects and not meant for human consumption, there's always a disclaimer on the packs of these products that clearly stated if you drink it you will die,and it's very difficult to stop a coward that is hell bent on taking his or her own life.

Re: Suicide And Sniper by Neddstark: 10:35am On May 22, 2019
If any of your loved ones were victims of suicide and try sniper perhaps, you all will reconsider your stance.
Suicide is like a spirit. It pushes you to think of killing yourself. With sniper nearby, there is a chance it might win. The stress of taking a ride to the bridge and taking a jump may actually get one to change his mind on the course.
It's just like a hornyy husband who will consider having sex with his nearby maid than lodging in a hotel with a prostitute.
Ban sniper. By the way, it is for professional agricultural use. Not home use. Using it for home pests is abuse.
Re: Suicide And Sniper by Mac2016(m): 10:44am On May 22, 2019
Even electricity is a good way to end it all... So shd we ban electricity?
Churches and mosques and other institutions especially religious ones have a whole lot to do. Preach against suicide not just request for pecuniary contributions every now and then and add to present economic burdens of victims. Government too should improve the economy small. If life is truly sweet nobody go wan go. Schools shd not be harsh. Bf/Gf relationship turning bitter shd be small small and not drastic. At least leave a listening ear or an ear to communicate with even when you're quitted. E saanu aje

yourFEARS:
You can't blame the high rate of suicide on the production of sniper. The manufacturers made the product for domestic rodents and insects.

Ban Sniper, and people will find something else to commit suicide with.

Depression and Hopelessness are the major causes of Suicide. And believe me, the moral decay in our contemporary society adds to those factors. The economy is bad, people are losing jobs, families are separating, people no longer respect relationships and the social media is Making life seem it's about the cars, houses and jobs. When events, situations and circumstances leave you empty and void, and things you've fed your thoughts on, can fill the emptiness and void, or you may see nothing worth holding onto in Life.

When all the happiness you have in life is derived from money, wealth, academic attainment, family, etc, you never can escape depression, when you lose those things.

Give your existence more essence and you'll never contemplate suicide. The Holy scripture puts it that, "If in this life alone we have hope, we are of all men most miserable".

I wish we could go back to the days when Religious organizations paid attention to issues of the soul. Today, it is quite pathetic that you can get depressed right inside the Church.

#noToSuicide
No matter what, look at the brighter side of Life.

When there's life, there's hope. I've seen people get healthy from cancer and life threatening issues. I've seen family reunite after decades of separation. I've seen wealthy people come out of excruciating poverty.

You case is not the worst.
Work on your mind and soul. Don't just be RELIGIOUS

This is an absolute gem....petmit me to copy this. God bless ya!

See enn.. My problem is not even with people drinking sniper or reading suicide news again.. Nowadays, I laugh after reading suicide news and simply say to myself "another idiot gone again"

These people committing suicide do so, to know how much they will be missed by their friends and loved ones..how many people will cry, how they will cry, who will cry more etc.. It is more like, they want to witness their own death while still alive.. Really crazy.. Because before now, suicide was - kill yourself and go your way..

But now, suicide is - take pictures with sniper, post it on social media, pose, post short video crying, write series of posts and then die, just to get social media attention. undecided

That thing is not depression...it is either there is a mumu spirit telling these persons to do it and see how they will be missed/how much they are loved OR they are just being plain stupid.

Social media has really made people stupid and vissionless.. Not sniper..

What do I even know sef undecided just saying my own
You know nothing about life and what people are going through!

If not for the fact that I m a Christian by now, I should have followed this step since. My God whom I serve W will not be happy with me but I know he will surely deliver me from the grips of debt that is tormenting me. I shall live to be great in Jesus name. I m made up and determined to continue.. The worst those I owe can do is to sent me to prison..... All I know is that when God answers me I will ask pay their money. SAY NO TO SUCIDE
