The more reason why we need Jesus! No one can survive without love and encouragement.. When you feel that the whole world has turned its back on you, the reality and consciousness of divine love will keep you going on.. Faith and hope in Christ, no matter the negative circumstances is a great antidote for depression!

Thetalker:
This is sad as one Bamidele Damilare, a business administration student of Lagos State Polytechnic died after taking a poisonous substance which according to the voice in the video was sniper.


It was gathered that he went into depression after their course coordinator, one Mr.Pears ridiculed and abused him over his inability to pay his fees.


His fellow students protected over his death, today. But, they were rebuffed by the Mr. Pears who washed his hands off Damilare's death.


Security operatives were later called to harass the protesting students.

It’s funny how healthy people these days easily take their lives where’s the sick ones are battling tooth and nail to stay alive. Please always have a reason to stay alive whenever the temptation to end it comes. If not to stay alive for yourself, at least for your parents or kids or someone who would terribly be affected by your death

it seems suicide is now a form of natural disaster to us as earth quake, flash flood, storm, tornado, avalanche, etc is to the western world o.

Its time the house of parliament passed a bill about this suicide thing cause is really getting out of hand. Moreover the bill should read thus: for every persons that commits suicide should be sentence to death by drowning, and for those that will attempt it should be given 20yrs imprisonment.

I agree with you bro. At a point in every man's life, we need someone who can give us words of encouragement and shower us with love. This little gesture goes a loooooooong way.

I actually did not want to comment, but I had to come back and do in order to enlighten some of us.

Apologies, this write-up is gonna be lengthy.

I read here as a lot of us say suicide is not the option, bla bla.
First you must understand that we have different break points and life experiences. What will make me might break you.

I don't come from a very very poor background, so I'll not come here to talk about experiencing one deadly hardship. I come from this Nigerian kind of average family, where we don't sleep hungry, we have never hawked to feed, never gone to beg in someone's house, didn't have a video cassette player but you dare not leave the house else you die grin, until we finally got ours, sometimes no meat in the food and we were fine, until cars started coming in etc. If you know this kind of background, then we're together.
But this does not take away the fact that there were very hard times when we'll mind our business and cook rice, Palm oil and tomatoes. When we'll not have Christmas clothes and no one will know. It was terrible but mum was supportive and always told us it'll get better. We'll be tired of clothes, cars, houses etc. And so it is today.


That being said I guess you'll agree with me that we are products of our experiences, either directly or learnt from other people's.

When things got better for us I thought it had gotten better for everyone, not until I was admitted to the university. I realized how bad it was to waste food we usually did at home. I saw people wait around just to steal other people's complete pots of food. Some people while they could not feed themselves misfortune was still adding it's own salt to the injury by taking away the Dad. I remember a friend whose Dad died and he had no transport to go home. I helped those I could and left those I couldn't. You don't know what people are going through in this country.

Lemme expressly state this that if you're reading this write-up then you're okay because 1.) You had money to spare to buy a phone that can browse 2.) You could even afford data. Then! You're somehow fine, because if you're not, in the proper priority list of life you'll not but data instead of food. The opportunity cost will always put food at advantage.



See, things are very hard for some people. I mean very hard. I set out to start my own business and I've never managed any before, it was difficult I ended up being indebted. Imagine I didn't have people to save my as.s imagine what would have happened when the owners come asking. Don't forget that ability to get loan is because I have guarantors who can handle that risk. Imagine I don't have? It's even better when you're hustling and you see a future in what you're doing. Some people don't even know what they're doing. Some people are trying to get out of one mess, and they are failing into messier messes.

In this country, to open a common barbing saloon will set you back about 70K. Where do you expect some Nigerians to get it from?

Sat with Dad one night and we spoke at length till about 2am on how their generation failed us by refusing to make appropriate provisions for us. And he told me things that shocked me.
We spoke about how he was contemplating CBN and other Federal Government jobs, how copers used to be rushed and picked from camp with official vehicle as soon as they close camp. Talked about a lot and I asked him why they refused to keep such for us to start with at least. Why they allowed the greedy take everything and become so unshakeably strong? Now it's difficult to change the narrative. Every average youth you see will say "abeg Nigeria don spoil no be me go change am abeg. Make I thief my own dey go" or "baba I wan leave this country like dis. If e just set like this, I don lost". We rather prefer to be second class citizens in another country than stay back fix this mess and be first class citizens here. It's very pathetic though.

I believe in tackling problems from the root. Majority of suicide is caused by lack or lack related problems. Forget about those who do it for love I'm not interested in them this night. When there is lack of provision, everything becomes a do or die affair. Survival becomes competitive. Those who can't meet up must die even in the jungle. Those with power and influence instead of helping to create eveness they set out to steal and stash for their generations unborn. If only we know the repercussions of modern day misappropriation of public funds and the time bomb it is, we'll protest this guys without sentiments. But they've come to understand that we can't be untied so they thrive in our religious and tribal dis unity. We're still here rallying support for the same caliber of thieves in different School uniforms. How sad!

Until death penalty is issued for misappropriation of public funds exceeding 100,000 we'll not get it right. "Person "will keep on stealing "People's"money and getting away with it. Then sink those who cannot partake, into depression which will lead to more suicides.

Lastly, I know we all want to make it. Good! Fine! But understand that when we finally make it, the children of the poor whom basic amenities have been deprived will not allow our children to ever live in peace. Whether we're the cause of their problem or not, and
irrespective of how we finally make our money.
Perfect write-up. Someone is planning a protest soon and I hope we will all understand and join. In this country, we celebrate stupidity beyond human comprehension. I am still shocked at how we celebrate our politicians who have destroyed this country. Nigerian leaders are so lucky. They are lucky because the civil war dealt with the mental state of Nigerians. If u know how these politicians steal eh. In fact, it js like stealing is in our blood.

100 percent right, I've thought about this and it worries me alot, am ok atleast financially, but whenever i see a youth struggling i become emotional, i know what it feels like to lack, God help Nigeria and touch the heart of these leaders.

Why is the church always the problem? You don't remember to talk of
1. People wasting money on high end phones that they do nothing sensible with
2. Owning many phones
3. Wasting money on beer
4. Wasting money in taking some nonsense girls out that will not add ANY value to their lives even when they have wives and or girl friends
5. Wasting money on clothes that they seldom wear
6. Wasting money on betaija and other ponzi schemes like MMM, loom etc
If you can't remember all these things but blame the church then your case is an urgent one. That you don't give to church doesn't mean every other person should be like you. By the way since you've haven't been giving to church, how many people have you helped out of their predicament
NOTE: people aren't helping others because of the giving they give to church. Those who fail to help others around them do so because they don't understand then principle of giving

U don’t know the level of frustration a person is facing u have no right to make it worse. This can be called administrative bullying.

Talked about a lot and I asked him why they refused to keep such for us to start with at least. Why they allowed the greedy take everything and become so unshakeably strong? Now it's difficult to change the narrative. Every average youth you see will say "abeg Nigeria don spoil no be me go change am abeg. Make I thief my own dey go" or "baba I wan leave this country like dis. If e just set like this, I don lost". We rather prefer to be second class citizens in another country than stay back fix this mess and be first class citizens here. It's very pathetic though.

I believe in tackling problems from the root. Majority of suicide is caused by lack or lack related problems. Forget about those who do it for love I'm not interested in them this night. When there is lack of provision, everything becomes a do or die affair. Survival becomes competitive. Those who can't meet up must die even in the jungle. Those with power and influence instead of helping to create eveness they set out to steal and stash for their generations unborn. If only we know the repercussions of modern day misappropriation of public funds and the time bomb it is, we'll protest this guys without sentiments. But they've come to understand that we can't be untied so they thrive in our religious and tribal dis unity. We're still here rallying support for the same caliber of thieves in different School uniforms. How sad!

Until death penalty is issued for misappropriation of public funds exceeding 100,000 we'll not get it right. "Person "will keep on stealing "People's"money and getting away with it. Then sink those who cannot partake, into depression which will lead to more suicides.

Lastly, I know we all want to make it. Good! Fine! But understand that when we finally make it, the children of the poor whom basic amenities have been deprived will not allow our children to ever live in peace. Whether we're the cause of their problem or not, and
irrespective of how we finally make our money.
. Dear, i had to read to the end, and was even asking for more, cuss it made so much sense. How i wish we all can stand up for our right
