A middle aged man identified as Mr. Oliver Osieme, has allegedly committed suicide by hanging himself to death in his private home in Etegwe community, Yenagoa Local Government Area of Bayelsa state.
The deceased who hailed from Anambra state was said to have allegedly killed himself at the afternoon hours of Monday when the wife who is a trader and other close relations had gone out.
A close relation said nobody was in the house when the incident happened since they all go out for their daily business, adding that in the afternoon when a younger in-law to the deceased came back from school she noticed the house was locked.
According to him “Everybody went out including the wife, but the wives younger sister came back from school and noticed the doors to his room and the apartment was locked: knowing that he’s always at home since he lost his job as a truck driver due to the faulty truck she kept on knocking, then she went to the window if she can gaze from the back, that was how she saw him (deceased) hanging in his room”
It’s a sad experience; nobody would have thought such thing would have been planned by him, the police had just taken his corpse with them, if you came earlier you would have seen it, a young man that was full of life, he added.
When our correspondent visited the home of the deceased, the whole community was in mourning mood as people were seen going into the apartment of the deceased to see the wife, and others gathering around discussing the incident in hushed tones on Tuesday morning.
In our quest to see and speak with the wife, a close relation to the wife said she can’t respond to questions now as she’s still in shock over the demise of her late husband.
Meanwhile, when contacted the PPRO Bayelsa state police command, DSP Asinim Butwats, he said that the matter hasn’t been brought to his table yet as he was not even in town but he was going to confirm the information and get back.
