How long will one continue to hear this?

SYMPATHISERS were moved to tears, weekend as they watched the lifeless body of a 38-year old man, Amidu Olajire, a hunter who reportedly killed himself after his wife abandoned him and their six children.

The corpse of the hunter, who was said to have committed suicide by shooting himself with a locally-made gun was discovered around 6.40am on Saturday after unsuccessful attempt by his mother to pacify him over the issue of his runaway wife.

The incident happened at Bakatari area of Ibadan, in Ido Local Government Area of Oyo State. Some moments after the deceased reportedly left his mother in annoyance, he went straight to his uncompleted building and pulled the trigger of the Dane-gun.

It was the sound of the gun that reportedly attracted neighbours but before they could get to him, he was dead, lying in his pool of blood.

Speaking on the sad incident, the Chairman, Landlords’ Association of the area, Mr. Mathew Bolaji, who described the incident as “shocking” wondered why the hunter who was popular in the area could commit suicide.

According to one of the community leaders in the area, Chief Mukaila Adebayo, he was in his house some minutes before 7am when he heard a booming sound of a gun followed by wailing of people who later told him the hunter had shot himself dead.

Vanguard gathered that a long local gun, a bottle of gunpowder and his mobile phone were found at the scene of the incident.

Already, policemen from Apata Police Station have taken the remains of the hunter to Adeoyo Hospital and said preliminary investigation conducted revealed that the man killed himself out of frustration.

The grandmother of the deceased was quoted as saying that hunter left her around 6.30am after telling her how his wife deserted him with six children.

She said: “After expressing his displeasure at the attitude of his wife, I tried to pacify him, not to take laws into his hand. He asked me to take him to a doctor for treatment but I told him that we cannot get any treatment from the doctor because we were still indebted to the hospital.

He then left in annoyance saying I would not like what he would do after now. All that I heard was that he had killed himself.”

Silly man. His soul has no chance of redemption cos all suiciders have committed a sin by taking a life (Theirs) All cos of one stupid woman.

Oh Boy. . .

The wife must have some golden toto. How else can you explain his dumb arse action?

Suicide is a sign of pride.
Saying, "I'd rather kill myself because I am too big to be going through this sort of deep-fried ish."

Not before he's flogged. Irresponsible mother, imbecilic husband.

The man is silly jor because of a woman

How easy it is to kick a man who is down. Or rather dead. A lot of people like to say that suicide is a cowards way out, but I think it does take a certain form of courage to also decide to kill yourself knowing that it can never be undone. How many of you can kill yourself? Now imagine the kind of mental pain and anguish one has to be in to decide to end his life. He was not in the best capacity of his mind. This was a man that was really hurting, and I wish no such pain upon any living human being. With that said, He was failed by the system. Let me say it once more. He was failed by the system.

Nigeria doesn't have a system in place to help those who are depressed, or suicidal. When people are really down, what is our system? The system is "get over it!" That's not a solution. For those of you that read the article, take note of this, "After expressing his displeasure at the attitude of his wife, I tried to pacify him, not to take laws into his hand. He asked me to take him to a doctor for treatment but I told him that we cannot get any treatment from the doctor because we were still indebted to the hospital."

The poor guy wanted to go to a doctor for treatment, but he couldn't. Any developed country has a free suicidal hotline that you can call at any time of the day to talk to someone if you are feeling down and suicidal, and if you tell them that you want to go to the hospital, they will immediately arrange for someone to pick you up. This is what systems do, systems help people. Let's stop kicking the dead man and realize that we have a failed system. Maybe you wouldn't kill yourself, but next time, it could be a friend of yours, or your relative. Let's hope there's a system of sorts to help them before it's too late.

May God have mercy,

A hunter with 6 children?na wa o,i really wonder why these type of people take pleasure in bringing kids they can't take care of into this already messed up world.

That is better.

I don't think taking his life solved any problem did it?
The children are now fatherless too and will end up in hands of pedo-philes and traffickers.
Parents can be selfish sha.
Blessed are the useless blokoses and wombs of the Lord Satan!
This is the result of a total illiterate and religion-crazy society that commands imbeci-les to go forth and multiply and breed like locusts, without knowing how to spell their names not to mention afford the least meaningful quality of life.

To quote the holy book. . .the "Lord giveth and the lord taketh". . . all na the will of God.
We wish them all well.

Chai! 10PM already? Time for round 2!

God bless America. . . my home sweeeeeeeeeeeetest home!!!!
