A 46-Year-Old Uber Driver, Muftau Abiodun Musa, has reportedly committed suicide in Osogbo, Osun State capital.

Sources revealed that his actions may not be unconnected to pressure from family members to get married.

The deceased, who left a note directing whosoever found his remains to check further details, indicated on his phone that his people could be contacted without hindrance, adding that nobody should cry over his demise.

It was gathered that the man had no wife or kids and had been battling depression for the past five years.

The source revealed that in December 2023, he attempted to hang himself but was stopped by his neighbours.

He noted that Musa also made another attempt by drinking insecticide and pesticide, which led to his admittance in hospital for two months.

Consequent to this attempt, the deceased had to relocate to his mother’s place for close monitoring.

The source also revealed that after he was discharged from the hospital, his family continued to mount pressure on him to get married and have kids, which led him to leave the house.

According to the Source: “In his quest for a new house, someone sublet one of the rooms in her home to him. He has been in that house since May 2024.

“The house rent expired in December, but he was given until the end of January to vacate, as the house owner wanted to renovate the house.

“The person who sublet the house told him three days ago to find another house, as the owner had told them to leave. He became depressed and hanged himself.”

The Source revealed that the Osun State Police Command has taken over the matter.

So my people, no accept pressure from people wey no know how things dey go for your side.
What do I even know sef aside enlightening my fellow men nationwide with the good news.

Oga before my DNA app come out, oga try to go for DNA test for hospital to check if that pikin wey dey call you daddy should continue or he should start calling you uncle

Chaiiiiiii
There is God oooo

Noted.

Low self esteem

Which kain marriage pressure go make you take your own Life?

His village people called him with foreign line

🤣 He lied. That can't be the reason. He just wants them to feel guilty.

This is what so many young men are going through out there. No job, no wife, no kids, no home of their own. The government isn't even making life easy for the people. It's just from one suffering to another.

You dey share money?

Headline made it seems like it died because of pressure to get married, while the reason is lack of progress and life struggles.

Rich or broke, marriage is never a man's problem. There are hundreds of women out there ready to marry any type of man.


The man simply lost hope in life, he's not the only one... Millions are going through same thing, they are just hanging on something or fear of afterlife.

If we were consulted before we were born, earth population will be less than a million. Billions of us don't want to be here, if you take religious delusions out... Life has no purpose.

Suicide is a complex issue, and there is no single reason why people commit suicide. However, I can provide some insights on how the pressure to get married might contribute to suicidal thoughts or behaviors.

The pressure to get married can be overwhelming, especially in cultures or societies where marriage is highly valued or seen as a milestone. This pressure can come from various sources, including:

1. Family expectations: Family members may urge individuals to get married, often due to cultural or social norms.
2. Social stigma: Singles may face social stigma or feel ostracized by their community or peers.
3. Fear of loneliness: The pressure to get married can be driven by a fear of loneliness or being alone in life.
4. Financial security: Marriage is often seen as a means of financial security, which can add to the pressure.

For some individuals, the pressure to get married can lead to:

1. Anxiety and stress: The constant pressure can cause significant anxiety and stress.
2. Feelings of inadequacy: Individuals may feel inadequate or incomplete if they're not married.
3. Loss of identity: The pressure to get married can lead to a loss of identity or a sense of purpose.
4. Mental health issues: The stress and anxiety can contribute to mental health issues, such as depression or anxiety disorders.

In extreme cases, these factors can contribute to suicidal thoughts or behaviors. However, it's essential to remember that suicide is a complex issue, and there are usually multiple factors at play.

If you or someone you know is struggling with suicidal thoughts or feelings of overwhelm, please reach out to a mental health professional or a crisis helpline for support.

OK

stop putting pressure on someone to do what they are not ready to do

it their life,


now he is gone ,

will any family member or friends who has been pressuring him ,continue his life for him?



don't ever let anyone or people push you do the wrong thing,


God loves you,

He was struggling financially based on the report. Why attribute his death to pressure to get married which wasn't stated in the suicide note.

Probably a compound issue. No money and no partner to go through life with.

He should have known people must talk.
You marry, they start checking your womb.
You born one, they tell you to give him/her a sibling. You born girls, they say your family name go end. You born boys, they say no daughter to care for you in old age.

Life na per head. As our fingers are unequal, so are our paths also different.

Stand strong and give it time.

May his soul rest in peace.

The spirit of death and grave has been inviting him ever since. The mercy of God keeps covering him, until he couldn't hide under the coverage while it lasted.

It is hard to say, RIP. As you took your life by yourself.
