For allegedly being discriminated against, a 23-year-old albino, Ugochukwu Ekwe on Sunday committed suicide in the Festac area of Lagos State.
The incident occurred at 311 Road, B Close‎, after the deceased’s parents went to church.

‎It was alleged that the deceased had attempted suicide last month after complaining of the discrimination he suffered from people as a result of his pigmentation.

He was said to have been rescued by a friend who arrived early enough, but he succeeded on Sunday after refusing to follow his parents to church, it was learnt.

A source in the neighbourhood told The Nation that his parents discovered his body hanging on the ceiling fan when they returned from church.

He said: “On arrival from church, his parents were shocked to discover the body of their son hanging from the ceiling fan in one of the apartments.
“One of his siblings was said to have raised alarm which attracted curious neighbours.

“I was returning from church when I saw people gathered in front of the block of flats. When I enquired, I was told that Ugochukwu had committed suicide.

“He finished his secondary school education since 2009. I also learned he had threatened to take his life, saying he was frustrated.”

“Later, we saw some policemen from Festac division who removed the body.”

When contacted, spokesperson for the police command, DSP Patricia Amadin said she was yet to get details from the Area ‘E’ Commander, Frank Mba.

He only needed a good G&C. So sad. R.I.P

RIP to the Albino

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm may his soul rest in perfect colour but to b candid albino's are outcasts and that makes them vulnerable.

""I also learned he had threatened to take his life before now, saying he was frustrated""

And they allowed such a person to be alone. His Parents should be arrested. They killed him indirectly.

May your soul find rest Ugo.

He shuld rest in pieces......


Dos that they not complete nko?

I av albinos friends balling wela like ballers

I don't pity people wid such mentality.....

Hm. So sad

No pictures?

Stigmatisation!!! People should know that some people are sensitive and thus mind their choice of words.

Aww! What a loss.

Nothing is worth taking your life for.

Singing 'what a friend we've in Jesus'

I think it is better off that way, than being frustrated every minute of the day.

I pray he sits in the right hand of his creator currently

Setup nah fuckup

Bro whats G&C?

Say No to discrimination of any kind. RIP

[size=14]Even though I don't support the discrimination, but the guy is an a$$-hole for taking his own life. I've seen successful albinos in life.[/size]

I heard Wayne rooney too is an albino

Damn! Ending one's life will never be a solution to a problem.

As popular as he is, Dani Alves was once thrown a banana on the field of play by some stvpid racist fans, dude picked up the banana and ate it.

There will always be haters... But we all need tough skins.

RIP to the deceased

Eyah

Ah broda


The descrimination too much oooo



Guys make una free them oooooo

EYEA WE SHOULD HAVE CALL THAT WHITE MAN THAT WAS INJECTING HIMSELF WITH ONE SOMETANCE TO HELP US CHANGE HIM TO BLACK.



ANY BODY THAT DISCRIMINATE AGAINS ALBINO AGAIN IS A TERORIST.


Please house of assemble take note we need constitutional amendment.

RIP

NOT A REASON TO COMMIT SUICIDE THOUGH



RIP

Suicide is never an option!

His parents wouldn't have left him alone in the house since he tried committing suicide before

On the other hand people should mind their choice of words when talking to others. You don't abuse or humiliate people because of the color of their skin or how they look like. They didn't create themselves

And you still came here to call him 'albino' - a clearly derogatory term?
