A Part Time Student Of Ibadan Polytechnic Commits Suicide


A part-time student of The Polytechnic, Ibadan, Oyo
State, Timilehin Ayobami Ogundare has been found
dead in his room at Ilupeju area, Baasala, Asero,
Abeokuta, Ogun State in western Nigeria.
He was believed to have committed suicide by hanging
himself. P.M.NEWS also gathered that the deceased
was a computer operator with a firm, Blueprint Music
Studio in Abeokuta, before his death.
A family source who did not want his name in print
disclosed that the deceased tried to kill himself last
year but was stopped by some people.
The relation revealed that the deceased was arrested
by some security guards and handed over to men of
the state vigilance service when he attempted to jump
into River Ogun. He was later released.
“The whole issue is still like a drama because I don’t
know what could have made him decide to take his
life. We have been looking for him since January 1.
Later, we heard that he went to Lagos. He boarded a
train from Lagos back to Abeokuta on Saturday and
came down at Lafenwa. He trekked from the station
through Enu Gada area to Ajitaadun down to Arakanga
area with the aim of jumping into the river.
“He was arrested by the security men in the area when
they saw him wandering with only his boxer pant on.
They handed him over to the Vigilante men at Oke
Ilewo for further investigation. We went there to collect
him and we were told to come back with him
yesterday. On getting to his room, we found out that
he had hanged himself. He left a short note,
apologising that he disappointed us,” the source
narrated in tears.
