Two days after Mr Ayodeji Balogun was caught cheating during a paper in his final examinations in the National Open University (NOUN) Lagos, Southwest Nigeria, the 27-year old final year student allegedly committed suicide.
Ayodeji, however, made his intention to take his own life known to his friends through a post on his Facebook wall.
He was allegedly caught cheating while writing the Business Management examination last Saturday.
The first son in a family of three then went ahead and hanged himself on a mango tree inside an uncompleted building beside his father’s compound.
Ayodeji, an ex-student of CMS Grammar School, Bariga, at about 6:13 p.m. on Monday posted his suicide note on his Facebook wall: “what they said about me is not true in school, but God knows better. Thanks we see at the end, I luv u all.”
At 8:04 p.m. that same day, he again updated the wall with “why me” before killing himself early Tuesday morning.
The sad incident which occurred at the victim’s family’s Oluwaga residence at the Ayobo-Ipaja Local Council Development Area of the state, has since thrown the entire community into confusion and mourning.
The deceased, We reliably gathered, tricked his mother into going for a vigil in their church and also ensured that his aged father was fast asleep before committing the dastardly act.
His father, Pa Balogun, while speaking on the sad development, said that since he noticed his son’s queer behaviour few days ago, he had made several efforts to ensure that the introvert disclosed what was bothering him to no avail.
“He told me he was not feeling fine and I tried my best possible afterwards to know what was troubling him but he won’t say a word.. I asked if he would like to see the doctor and he said no.
