SINCE THIS PRESENT GOVERNMENT CAME IN ,THE RATE OF SUICIDE AND SUICIDE ATTEMPTS IS GETTING HIGHER BY DAY. THIS IS NO COINCIDENCE. SOMETHING IS DEFINITELY WRONG. IT IS IN THE AIR . WE NEED TO PRAY AGAINST THIS PLAGUE FROM PIT OF HELL. NOT A JOKE. PRAY MY PEOPLE PRAY. THIS VICTIMS ARE SOMEONE'S RELATIVES. WE ARE NOT SAFE. OUR PEOPLE ARE SPIRITUALLY LOST.

He committed suicide because he had low mark?? Who told him everyone that scored high mark in jamb will gain admission or be allowed to study his or her chosen course?

What some people count unsumountanle challenges these days is baffling.

Docile government will do nothing about this sniper menace until it becomes a national crisis. Sale of sniper should be regulated already in a society where leaders care for their people. Jeremy Kyle show has been cancelled because a guest killed himself after going on the show. Nigerian life is worth nothing to our leaders. Shame

For anybody thinking of taking THIS STEP, u are on ur own oh. l was abt 12 when my younger sister of 10 took her life by hanging. All my siblings, Dad, Mum etc are still alive kicking fine. So she did it to herself thinking she wud hurt anybody.lf u like, take dis useless step, ur on ur own.
.
And the worst thing is dat it is a straight TICKET to HELL FIRE.

Reminds me of a family friend who committed suicide by hanging because his father refused him pocket money. His other siblings and parents are still alive and kicking. The father even built a new house recently.
This is a generation of weak and crazy people. Wierd things appeal so much to them.

congratulations to him

Ban sniper. Over 20 lives this year alone

EzeVals90:
It's high time Nigeria ban sniper. what's all this sef.!

It’s there decision ,let any one take his/her life,life is hard enough to be trapped .you either stay or go bro. You don’t have to be trapped

jaxxy:
Many parents don’t discuss bt rather dictate to their kids without giving them a clear and broad perspective about life.

Thanks 4 this. Can't believe no other comment even touched on the parental pressure most Nigerian kids face in their academics.
When a kid fails and is scared of bringing his or her result home because of the verbal or physical abuse that will follow.
It's even worse with jamb because parents feel they have wasted money if their kids don't pass the exam.
It nonsense has to stop

As u register for jamb now they should just ask if you want sniper with ur papers but on a serious note I feel somehow when ppl put emojis with bad news feels like they don't take it seriously

Failure44:
I can't blame him
I scored 193 in jamb and I feel like drinking insecticide.
It's not easy.

change your monicker asap. maybe then your score will be re-evaluated.

But seriously, the makers of sniper should be responsible enough to atleast push out a press release on the back of all these suicides.
In saner climes, they won't stay mute.

Oddsman:
Ban sniper. Over 20 lives this year alone

because of what did the company give it to them did they say u should drink sniper no so ppl that jump off bridges they should ban water or bridge or ppl that hang themselves they should ban rope

This incoming generations are a bunch of puss*ies,who commits suicide over something as trivial as jamb, the parents should just cremate the idiot and move on.

E be lyk say this sniper sweet well well
The new trending drink

oluseyiforjesus:
Lets ban sniper in Nigeria

My thought too. Dudes are using it for the wrong purpose. Snippers is an insecticides not humanicide

This trend is on the increase and nothing is been done to check mate it. It’s rather sad that after all the difficulties faced by youths in this country, there’s no hope or plans to improve this systematic failure of every sector of this country. RIP bro

people keep shouting 'ban sniper', sniper is an insecticide for fvck sake, not to be eaten! had it been it is garri people ate and they die, then government can put a ban on garri. even if they ban sniper, do you think it's only sniper that can kill fast?

yes it is very bad when a child fails u aren't supposed to blame them except when they didn't work hard but some that work hard but don't pass doesn't mean they are dumb maybe they have a learning disorder or memory problem or can't assimilate as well as others that reminds me of a friend of mine his parents were such suffocating ppl they were both engineers and made it their mission to make him one to not asking him what he wants to be but telling him what to do he was never good at sciences or math not bad but he was very average in them but was exceptional in art and economical subjects one of the best if not the best but hid parents would never look at his strong suites but would always force him to be who he wasn't and he never had the spin to tell his parents what he wanted we would always tell him to talk about it with his parents but he would not it then followed him all through senior school to Uni he was very rich so he studied abroad in one of the best science schools he finally had the courage to drop out and follow his dreams he is not as rich as he was in his younger days but he has a happy life which is the best having an okay life in which you are happy than a rich depressed life

Again l!!!
Which kind curse dey for Nigeria education sector

Useless nigerian parent at fault

once there's massive failure in Jamb, government will accept the result and if otherwise, Jamb will claim there was high level of malpractice... Nigeria is a scam... Yahoo is good but i don't blame them

I wrote JAMB 11 times, today I am now a graduate.. 2003 to 2013 and I also had 1 extra year.. spillover..

17 years all because of jamb that won't guaranty u will gain admission, Nonsense

In 2009.... was 17 years then ...I wrote jamb 2 times..before I had admission..... even when I had admission.... I was still in school when I wrote 3 more jamb just because I wanted to study medicine..... .. .....i wrote waec twice.....

I was offered admission into forestry even with my high score.... I declined and proceeded to finish my initial course........

now I'm done with Nysc..... but just imagine this fool.....

BTW.... all this mor0ns shouting ban sniper.... is it only sniper that can kill.....??

Alejobs:
Govt may need to do something about the proliferation of sniper and other ddv

I agree with you. Why is it so easy to buy this dangerous stuff? There has to be some controls. Lives are being wasted just like that.

I don't understand this connection between Sniper and suicide.

These people should not make this government impose a ban on sniper.

It helps to kill my mosquitoes.

That was how too much death led to the ban of I-beta-pass-my-neighbour generator

if u know u survived JAMB during ur own time

if u know u came put tall after writing Jamb More than 4 times

if u know u can look back at those Jamb days and larf

please just take a moment to say I CAN SURVIVE ANYTHING

Whoever told you that people take their lives to hurt others must be an idiotic psycopath...no one commits suicide because they want to hurt anyone, rather they do it because they have lost hope and cannot bear the burden on their heart and mind so death becomes a relieve for them...suicidal people need help, they need to be monitored and be given a reason to hope...we should not see them as people who are selfish but as people have been given a thousand reasons to give up and stop fighting!
