Suicide is becoming trendy among Nigerian students. In just a month there has been 10 suicide cases reported from different campus, UNN, UNIPORT, ABU, UNIJOS, Jambites, Ilori, University of Ibadan
Could it be as a result of academic stress? Is the society getting anti social? Break-up trauma from love is not also far fetched.
Whatever the reason, ASUU and the federal government should sit down and find solution to student suicide. A mass campaign against suicide like it was done with cultism may yield results. Maybe a suicide watch police could also be set up where every student is evaluated at intervals by Psychologists. A toll free line students can call and get someone to talk to is another good option.
Something has to be done otherwise....

it still won't stop one who has lost all hope in life..suicide is an act of free will. More to go

Elliot2:
Nobody really fancy killing himself if his challenges are taken care of,right? Why not put that effort into that? I have been suffering from a pain in my back since I fell from a ladder ten years ago. I am hopeful it will go. This said lady is also hopeful. She was worse than now but her nervous system is picking up slowly. she could move her hands n legs. She actually had the breakdown after overdosing on chloroquine drug.

Damn... Wishing you and her a speedy recovery

Suicide come they hungry me I swear but leaving my mom all alone in this wicked world won't just let me

Heineken:

wildikeman:


As in eh.. And they wonder why people commit suicide. I think its even high time... Most Nigerians are too bitter and inconsiderate. Annoying thing is they don't even know him

My cousin tweeted that I should pray for his friend that is depressed and is resorting to suicide in his behaviour.

Hmmmm. So the guy later pull through.?

Take his body to evil forest. Tradition should come back to reduce suicide.

Imaging u knowing that ur body is going to one evil Badagry forest, u go think twice.

wildikeman:

Heineken:
bro it's gon be fine...

Thanks bro.. Hang in there

It's much easier for depressed athiests to commit sucide.
Life doesn't end on Earth, they immediately realise suicide a horrible mistake.

EbukaHades10:
No o!!! I'm 11 yrs old


So I must be an "old man" before I start condemning suicide?


Those dummbfawks are looking for what isn't there and suddenly, boom!!!, suicide is the next thing?


Even a 10year old knows suicide is bad

Your type worry me.

Smh...kids everywhere

EVILFOREST:

INDOMIE and PAMPERS caused all these....
When BOYS were eating palm kernel/coconuts/kuli kuli /Agidi/watery-beans/ soured egusi/ did we hear all these..??

Then BOYS and GIRLS could trek to schools several miles, but now Parents do everything for them. Some are even transported to schools like dogs with their Tongues spilling out.
Then Neighbors could beat and correct you in the absence of your parents, but now everything is “WITCH”
Now......
Teachers Pamper them
Churches Pamper them
Neighbors Pamper them
Parents Pamper them

So, exposure to LITTLE PRESSURE, everything EXPLODES

You are 100% correct .I'm a teacher and I've been warning parents and co teachers about this pampering . Private schools are more guilty .Could you believe that students are superior to their teachers in many Private schools ?

Na intimidation of yahoo boy dey
cos am cos a graduate wey ur mate wey never get ordinary school cert dey drive Benz
God please answer my prayer n pick my call bfore ending of this year amen
Like for copy and paste format share to hustle hard n pray

No matter what we all are facing in this life.
Suicide should never be the option.
Everybody has his or her own problem they facing including me my self but that won't make me to use my own bare hands to end my life.

iamclime:

From my experience with students at both secondary and tertiary levels of education in Nigeria, I quite agree with your submission, though a bit hilarious. Most of the kids of this generation cannot cope with the common vicissitudes of life. And the pressure, competition, and materialism is telling on them. God help us all!

Personally, I will say it's natural selection, the weak ones take themselves out, it's how the world has always been.

Apparently an atheist.

He had many questions and even aligning himself as a free thinker could not help.

I have many questions too. But at the base of my mind, somehow, God makes all things to walk for my good.

akp202:

Am really amazed at how things have changed. Jambites now committing sucide due to jamb score...chai

Lol. The same UTME that I wrote six times.

Now sadly, he knows where atheist go when they die.
He even joked and laughed in his suicide note. Is this still depression or something else. I'm thinking suicide obsession.

AntiBrutus:


Lol, some of you overplay the girls love bad guys script. I hope you all get sense before it is too late. I am missing nothing.

Na you sabi.

I only pitied his soul roasting in hell fire now. Stupid boy

Those who have the heart for suicide, they're the powerful minds among us. Going into Oblivion is the best choice anyone can make in a messed up world, wish of have the courage I'll just leave this stupid world alone.

That's satanic mindset ,a powerful mindset is being in a state to know that nothing is permanent, even this life we live is not permanent, they is always light at the end of each tunnel, what makes the world stupid to you that want to make you Leave so fast and where do you think you know you're going to after this life. so why the hurry.. that's counting z before letter A..
what do you think that couldn't be amended loss of your loved ones, separation from the one you love lost of your job.. lost of your house, parents , hopelessness, depression what is it you think couldn't turn around at any given point of time..Or you've forgotten or haven't read where they say change is the only constant thing in life.. why buying into ignorance.. my friend only the feeble minded commits suicide.. be wise.. it's not an easy world out there..

FG should ban snipper, it has killed more human beings than rat

They can’t be banned. I think they should be sued. They have an obligation to educate the public in this matter

Obinna, why are you sounding suicidal? don't come and kill yourself here ooo. If u must do, Pls submit your kidney

Not surprised at the response from this Forum. They are a reflection of the mentality of the average Nigerian:heartless/lack of compassion for their fellow humans.

There's always that one hopeless tribalist.
