Too bad it ended terribly. I guess she lived alone with no one to advise her to be calm in that tense moment. Jumping was a bad idea. After the jump, assuming she survived the impact, she will certainly not be able to run with her legs, and the robbers she was running away from were already on the ground where she would land.

To have fallen and landed on the head. From that height probably around 55-70m hmmm. This story is not clear a bit.

My detective senses are tingling.

Many things dey this report. The robbers told her not to...

Hmm...

The conspiracy theories are coming in.

Why would she want to jump down...i know fear in this other but really? She wanted to jump and jumped?

Oh well, let musa remain at his gate.

Prioritization acumen of most Nigerians is faulty
It is not uncommon to find in Nigeria people paying 4 million and above as rent per annum, but they will consider CCTV surveillance & monitoring system of 200k as waste of money.
-person wey buy 10million naira car go tell u say 20k gym membership is too much and he cannot pay
-person wey im mama and papa roof for village dey leak, go dey pay rent of 5m in Lekki and Maitama

Some sees you as not classy and are beyond your level when you advice on what should be their priorities. Had I known is the later comment of money miss road

Didn't the police who were invited take any pictures on the scene of crime on arrival? Wouldn't it make sense to post her picture where she landed from the dive and got her head injured? At least that will make sense that she died of her own injuries instead of painting a James Hadley scene for us.

What are you talking about? Every suicide is intentional, if someone is trying to escape dangerous situation and dies in the process it's accident not suicide

Go and re-educate yourself, suicide can only be intentional.

By your own definition, anytime a death occurs by the fault of one's actions, that would be suicide; which clearly makes no sense as women who die through childbirth, drivers who die through over speeding and people who cross highways would all be classified as committing suicide.

Can we call her case Accidental suicide because jumping from a three story building is more or less a suicide mission. Just my opinion.

Six weeks before her end, she prayed against "Nigeria happening to anyone she cared about".

APC thugs are the robbers. They have gone moscow-esque.

Gateman was killed she stays at the 3rd floor the other floors weren't visited by the armed men she died the men fled no other scene apart from hers shows clearly they came for her.

They might have thrown her down by themselves

My pain is she wasn't having a gun at home see gun is essential than Love Machine that they prefer to have a PA would have done justice on them for you u only need to take put 1 and call the nearest police station for backup case close. RiP fine lawyer maduagwu

If you are running away from thieves and in the process you fell into a deep pit where you later died 5 days later, is that suicide too?

She was trying to escape but she died in the process. That's no suicide.

A pregnant woman has no other option but to deliver the infant so that can never be termed suicide. A driver moving above speed limit is engaging in a suicidal act. The lady had the option of staying put and coming out alive but she chose to jump from a 3-storey building. Now that's suicide! It was self directed. They told her not to jump. I understand that she was afraid but jumping from such height is not a wise decision as survival chances are low. Let's not turn this into an argument section. It has happened and we should pray that God gives the people so dear to her the strength to move on cos this is a real disaster. Another major concern is Abuja is really unsafe and I think the security agents are complicit in these robberies. It's just too much.

Can't you guys see how obvious it is that Those demonic robbers threw her off from the 3rd storey that's why she landed badly. The reporters are really heartless to be reporting that she dived to her death from the 3rd floor.

Heartless citizenry, heartless journalists and heartless country

She chose death over dishonor.
Although admirable, her soul will be damned ro purgatory.
It was obvious her assailants wanted ro rob and rape her.. definitely not to kill.
She chose not to live albeit a rape victim and rather die unmolested..

You could just call it an "accident", which is one of the reasons the word itself was created.

If the robbers didn't invade their building this soul, wouldn't have be lost tragedly like that.

What do people gain in evil and committing atrocities?

Why robbery, why theft.... Why must you steal from someone else to survive?

Are you not guilty?

In Nigeria government value life of bandits and terrorists, kidnappers more than life of Nigerians. Evans kidnapped and killed dozens, he is being treated like a dignitary in jail, bandits killed, raped women, killed security operatives, and were treated like heroes by northern leaders. The universe will deal harshly with the evil politicians using innocent lives of Nigerians as tools due to their evil aims.

What about the so called parents who bring innocent children into this world knowing they don’t have the financial means or wherewithal to train them and set them up to a good life? What about them?

In sane climes (as we mumu Nigerians like to say), women don’t get pregnant without available and ready resources to bring up that child. Thats why we are overpopulated inside extreme poverty.

In Nigeria if you advocate equitable, democratic, distribution of resources the Blackman here will say you are a weakling

Now there is very huge massive inequality gap in Nigeria. PBAT administration is in a hurry to clear what is left of the middle class he inherited. These black men here say this is the African Nigerian way!

Winner must take it all. All the government intervention programs, ministry jobs, federal civil service jobs, appointments ApC now say these are strictly for APC members.

It is painful really
