Man Who Attempted Suicide With Acid Need Help by dahaz(op): 7:18pm On Aug 12, 2015
A 30-year –old man, Taiwo Eko who
attempted suicide by drinking a raw motor
battery acid in 2011 over what he described
as helpless condition, is now urgently in need
of medical attention to survive the damages
done to himself.
He bought N400 acid from road side
mechanic whom he lied that he was going to
use it for important experiment and ended up
using himself as the experiment material with
an excuse that he had no parent or anybody
to assist him in life.
Taiwo, after attempting to take his life
damaged his throat and his voice cracked.
His tongue was also affected which made
him not to speak louder to the hearing of
anyone in the same room with him except the
person draw closer.
The Delta State born Taiwo who now eat
through the assistance of naso -gasgric tube
(GNB) and artificial oxygen for his breathing,
said he had been treated both in Nigeria and
India yet his condition is getting worse on
daily basis.
He said Apollo Hospital in India treated him to
the extent that he no longer breath with
artificial oxygen or eat through tube, adding
that he was surprised and confused that when
he returned to Nigeria everything got worse.
Taiwo pleaded with the State and Federal
government to return him back to India where
he had contacted a doctor who promised to
save his life. He noted that his major problem
is fund since he has no parent or working to
earn income.
Narrating how he attempted to take his life,
Taiwo said “I drank acid; I wanted to kill
myself because I was not happy with my
condition. I have no parent and I have being
suffering for many years without help. I went
to mechanic workshop to get the acid with
N400 but the acid didn’t end my life the way I
wanted.
“The people who rushed me to the hospital
said I was already dead, that the first hospital
rejected me. I was referred to Eko Hospital in
Delta State and nothing happened. They took
me to University of Benin Teaching Hospital
where I stayed a year and six months.
“But later the Hospital management changed
their mind to perform surgery on me. As God
want it, I met Dr. Richard Okonye, a man of
God who volunteered to take me to India
where I got treated. But when I came back
to Nigeria my condition got worse. I called
one of the doctors in India and he said I
should come to India, but I don’t have money
to travel abroad. I am begging Nigerians to
help me.”

it's very simple. Let him go to the same mechanic and buy the acid worth N800. This time his ministry will have direction.
