Not everyone is mentally balance to bear things such as this.
He ended his life is the only sad thing,leaving a handful of people to carter for.

R.I.P though..

Gracealone:
I am seriously pained by this sad trend. Our government at all levels should wake up to this reality. Now, anyone just wakes up anytime and decides to end his own life. The social support system is very frail. Beyond banning open sale of the Sniper insecticide, government should do more. I am yet to hear of any serious summit or conference by the govt to address this issue of suicide rate increase. Beyond releasing press statements, I expect the FG to have sponsored our seasoned social scientists to investigate this menace and profer solutions. Our spiritual leaders too should come in to provide support and give words of hope and encouragement. These people seem to find no shoulder they could rest their heads. People give up so easily because the devil sounds it loud to them that "nobody would understand".

And while other countries have institutions that provide psychological, physical and other support to depression sufferers, our own Lagos state would send you to jail if you are caught attempting suicide. What a shame!

Easier to picture that our obsessively greedy authorities will enjoy this, than ever conceive they are bothered.
Best they can do is sound like they feel concerned, but in reality they act like all these are not their business.

This is really unfortunate. I have said it before and will say it again. Suicide will multiply in Nigeria. Not because times are hard. Times were HARD way back before now. The problem now is that adults are increasingly immature and the society is increasingly frivolous.

People have no true friends, because friends now see themselves as rivals, back stabbers/biters now masquerade as friends. Problem shared now becomes public information.

There's a rat race going on and it's measured by fleeting wealth and nothing else true and lasting. Setbacks are mourned as a wasted life by those who should give love and genuine support. Men who rose through their friend’s magnanimity are now digging graves for such friends. So troubled man becomes a butt of jokes by those in whom he reposited his trust.

Calamities befall men and their friends shed tears in the morning and run them down at night. Adults now behave like children.
The man can’t even tell his wife because he is sure she won’t understand. He has seen her divulge little details to her family. He has heard her eulogize wealth and curse set backs as abomination. She has a little merry heart. Men now gossip like women.

The cleric can’t be trusted because he is given to flamboyant cars and lots of worldly ambition. He rates men by their earthly successes and wealth. He can’t be trusted because wealth he says, is the ultimate blessing from God. Everyday he celebrates only the rich.

So the troubled man walks around with his troubles in his heart, smiles at all the children masquerading as adults around him. One day, he would weigh it all over again and say no, it’s enough.
True and matured friends are now very scarce! No true ears to talk to in times of trouble, no honest shoulder to lay on in times of weakness.
And a culmination of all these is why depression-induced suicide is on a sad rise.

Can we all rise and fight this menace called depression in truth?
Can you work and encourage others to assume the role(s) of true friend(s)?
Can we jointly reinstate the intergrity of the quote “Problem shared is half solved”?
Be your brothers keeper

Thanks ,this object lesson

Comments like this gives me hope that all is not lost in this nation and that nairaland still have quality commenters. God bless you, sir.

WINDSOW:
He was murdered!

Now, that's a possibility. The main culprit may murder an innocent man, make it look like suicide, in order to deflect attention from himself.

Without thorough investigation and convincing evidence, we may not really know what happens. It might not be a suicide

This is a very rich comment, I dove my hat for you bro.
Like you rightly said, that adults are increasingly immature, parents are causing serious problems that they might not able to control, you take an eight year old child to secondary school, you assisted them get WAEC results , assisted them gained admission to the University, lobbied for them for employment opportunities. By the time they experienced any little failure or setback. They think they can't move on rather to commit suicide. Please beware, let our children metamorphosis to reality of life.
In the olden days our parents do chores manually, yet they live longer, but now everything is automatic, yet short life span. May God help us.

Its not everybody that can withstand shame like Bubu.

In short Bubu has no shame in his eyes. He should have done the samething this man did.

I can't kill my self,...,,,,, timaya100%√

That is an awkward thinking on his path to kill himself. Na him burn the car?

JOHNSONSOLAFUNMI:
At least blur the pictures now, you know if his relatives are on nairaland

If it's blurred then what's the reason for this news

@Autotrader014 may God continue to bless you with greater knowledge

What a coward way to leave this world

waste..

thorpido:
Why kill yourself?Even if you were culpable,the punishment you will receive will not kill you.
Now you just put your family in sorrow and will make life hard for them.

Coward! What happens to a wide and 3 kid?!?!

hmmmm... The things i have passed through in this life, And i didnt kill myself... God dey

May God extricate Nigerians from this sucidal syndrome, harakiri is not our culture is Oriental.

Ademoore07:

Hmmm, to face shame is not that easy. I knew what i had passed through. May God wipe our painful tears.

Amen , me nko ?

vaca1:


There's this series is love so much "The Americans"and I will never forget this quote in that series"There are worse things than death-SHAME

really ?


Na death I fear pass

bestman09:

Too bad. He didn't even think about the wife and kids.
BTW, why set up a panel because of a burnt bus? Did he set it ablaze?

Very true. But for those involved or depressed they can't think straight at that particular point they needed help at that lowest moment.

A word of encouragement to those around us or family could help a lot as we never may know who you might save.

This is the best comment on this thread without bias of any kind. You covered virtually the entire spectrum that could lead people to committing suicide and they are all valid points for rational minds.

It is time we reduced publicity of suicide news

Bros, pls pls and pls don't kill yourself, i care and am ready to listen to you.
If you kill yourself, that is a very good opportunity and open door for her to increase her infidelity without any restrictions.
Pls i think you need to separate for now and let her be. Give her space to think for yourself without distractions and be able to work out a plan on how to stand again.
There is an adage that - eniti owo e o ba ti te eku ida, ko gbodo bere iku to pa baba eni.
Now is not the day of reckoning, you need space and time to work out yourself from this mess.
Pls can you give me your number? Let's talk better

Bros, i more than understand.
I know the pains you are passing through.
Have been there myself, so am talking from experience.
I know of 4 people around me that have all died bcus of wives issues. They died of kidney failure due to overthinking.
Guess what? Those wives are fucking bastardly now, there fucking rate as gone up astronomically why the husbands are in graves.
In fact, most of them were already fucking even before the death of their husbands.
The way life is going, all men need to start learning on how to live and survive without women on worst case scenarios.

Only God can tell us how many Nigerians have mental challenges not fully exposed

You can see how the man's corpse was displayed, how will you feel seeing a death relative pics online.... if you believe the gospels just reading it, why can't you believe this then, if it doesn't contain pictures
