In a country where suicide has become trendy due to gloomy economic woes, the CDS actually attempted to fly 70 equally foolish people along with himself to Canada to watch a sporting event organized for wounded Army Veterans, ALL ON TAXPAYERS MONEY!!!


May God bless the Canadian official who’s conscience wouldn’t let him/her approve jamboree visas while people wallow in nail-biting poverty. That knight in shiny armor decided to do his bit to ease the long suffering of Nigerians by stamping “REJECTED” on their visas!


We hope other countries follow suit.


Nigeria is for all of us, God bless Nigeria.

A boy, just 16, ending his own life—a tragedy that leaves us asking why. What weighed so heavily on his young mind? Was it silent struggles, unseen pain, or a sense of hopelessness?

At an age meant for dreams, he instead chose an irreversible path. He was calm, well-liked, and had a future, yet something deeper troubled him—something no one noticed. His birthday was just a day away. Could a listening ear have made a difference?

This is a wake-up call. Many young minds battle in silence. A kind word, a little attention, or simply asking, "Are you okay?" could save a life.

Calm. Well liked.
Most probably an introvert.
Things weigh heavily on introverts.
In addition, they find it hard to express their feelings.
I pray a girl wasn't involved in his confusion...

And there is the young boy becoming a man Timipre Anyibanua. What a story! 16! What were you doing when you were 16? Bulaba could be his grand father. Young and innovative maybe just the beginning for Nigeria as it keeps spiraling down

Nawa
I'm still wondering what could be the reason that a 16yr old would commit suicide when he still has parents to depend on for survival.
It can't be heartbreak from a girl. No.
He wasn't a gambler I presume
Re: 16-Year-Old Commits Suicide In Bayelsa by ellizy(m): 7:55am On Feb 17, 2025
Hope he isn't sport bets gambling?

Painful!

What could possibly caused this action of taking his own life?

Saner clime would investigate thoroughly to unravel the misery behind this. Not speculations made by people
