Life! what could have prompted a man this old to take his own life after all his experience in this world. Below is how Facebook user, Comm Eze Chuma explained the ugly incident as he shared the graphic photos of the old man who committed suicide recently in Anambra state . Remember the pictures are graphic, so.viewer discretion is advised...


"For quite some time now, it has been Suicide.. Suicide... Suicide... Tuffiakwa !! This is what plays out in Anambra my darling state..... So much anguish and pains, one wonders what is the government of the day doing to alleviate the pains of the aged? What is the structure in place to promote and ensure quality welfare package for the senior citizens? What is the connect between the government and the elderly in our society? Why in this time and age an old man would hang himself to register disappointment and frustrated living? Why would this man end up this way? What went wrong and why toe this dishonourable path? Government should look into the plights of the elderly in the state.. This is becoming a norm... Suicide... Suicide.... Suicide The Ajile Mopol Governor should sit up and arrest this ugly trend in Anambra. Abomination indeed! Comr Eze Harris Chuma

Sad.

Might have been loneliness.

I have seen some old folks,that have been neglected for a long time by family members and they gradually sink into depression.

Not saying that should be a reason to kill oneself. Okay guys,pick up your phones and call your parents now to say hi,or any aged person in your family,you might not know how important that call might be.

What is the guy below me typing?

Buhari come and see

This does not look to me like suicide. Looks like the man was murdered and placed there to look like suicide.

Eyah, but why?

its a pity.... old man that suppose to die in a gracious way.....

I suppose let's say 70-80years he spent on earth is a waste...




Alright, it was better he ain't even born

Murder! Not suicide.
Death is a very strong thing! his legs cannot be touching the ground n he will still strangle himself.
He was killed and staged there as a suicide victim.

This will never be investigated. I trust my naija police on that one. They will just arrest every living thing around there and release them soon bail of #5k or more and rest the case.

Man hangs himself and his shirt still sits calmly on his shoulder? That tree is a poor choice for someone contemplating sucide. Most of them will use a big tree with descent branches that they feel will carry their weight.Even if he died by moving away from the tree until he suffocated, his body will not return to that position. He will remain where he drew his last breath. Hiw did he tie that rope? No sign of chair or ladder. Clear case of suspected foul play

Looks Like He's Dancing....#RIP BRO

life hard

What a pity. He looks malnourished. The Harris Chuma guy dey sound like say na poverty dey drive Anambrans to commit suicide these days If so perhaps Obiano should swallow his pride and adopt Fayose's 'stomach infrastructure' to save precious lives of his people. R.I.P to the Baba.

Nigeria haf tire him! Rest well baba

See this man oh.... He should have waited a little to die naturally instead of committing suicide...... Rip sha

Frustration!!

Straight to evil forest for burial

This reminds me of okonkwo in "Things fall apart

Short of words.

The body was planted there, it is not suicide.

damn!

Is he Nigerian?

Murder. It is never possible for a man to hang himself with his feet touching the ground...clothe on his shoulder? Come on. Too easy.
Pure murder.

God! This could have been caused by dementia or Alzheimer's disease.

suicide on the roadside by a fence, not even a walkway but a memorable road. I smell foul play.

Many factors, it could be depression, hunger, anxiety and joblessness. But such acts are not done with a sane mind. The worst of it all; our govt ain't concerned about people down with such. God help us all, but I can't imagine taking My life, make y
