Reports have it that Shedrach’s parents are divorced and he faced many challenges because of their marital status.
He reportedly requested for the sum of N50,000 from his father to enable him settle some pressing needs but his father turned down his request and he got angry and ended it all by hanging himself..
He was a 200 level Student in the department of Biochemistry...
*This is one of the side effects of divorce...Poor boy!.. Rest in Peace!
This one had his own personal demons, not the 50k he didnt receive.
ReplyDeleteNa today parents begin say No?!
Do you know why he needed the money?
DeleteThe boy was probably tired of going back and forth btw his parents. Mother will say Go and meet ur father, father too will reject him and say go and meet ur mother. Alot of kids from divorced parents often feel rejected, isolated and dont feel they belong in a particular home especially if d parents have remarried . They feel like a burden. This isnt just abt 50k RIP
DeleteNo matter why he needs the money. Now that he is dead. Will the problem be solved.
DeleteInsensitive father. How much be 50k compared to the loss of a child now???
DeleteI hope he can live with himself knowing why his son departed from the world like that.
Abeg bed and Rose's, that one no be talk, orphans nko, them commit suicide?
DeleteOriginal sugar, try and use your sense na, at least for one day. Did u ask if he had the money? Or the reason didnt make sense..... is that how parents dish out money?
DeleteThis is so sad. Lord have mercy on his soul.
ReplyDeleteI hope someone did not kill him and hanged his body to make it look like suicide. Lazy Nigerian police will not do a thorough investigation. I still remember that story of yesterday where that evil couple beat their maid to death and hung her body claiming she committed suicide.
ReplyDeleteThen the Ilorin wife too that was allegedly poisoned and killed by her husband and in-laws, then they said she drank snipper because her husband wants to marry another wife
I hate it when people assume the police don't know their job and start saying someone that committed suicide was murdered. The police can very well differentiate suicide from murder like you mentioned. The reason for the suicide was also stated.
Delete12:50 why do you believe that is the reason for the supposed suicide? Did the deceased leave a suicide note or he told you that before he died? Mtcheeew. Olopa abeg shift!
DeleteHmm this world is a wicked world...may God continue to help us
Delete12.50 👌
DeleteHmmm
ReplyDeleteHmmm.. There's more to this 😪
ReplyDeleteGod have mercy
ReplyDeleteRest in peace young man
ReplyDeleteThis is 💔💔💔,rest in peace young man
ReplyDeleteGod have mercy on us.
ReplyDeleteHope it's not drug related?
ReplyDeleteThings are happening this days
ReplyDeleteWhat does him committing suide have to do with his dad not giving him the money he requested??
ReplyDeleteIn one breathe, you tell women in abusive marriages to leave their husbands...yet in the next breathe, make remarks like "this is one of the side effects of having divorced parents"!!
What if an abused spouse sees your comment and decides to stay, so that their kid/s will not "kill" themselves later!!!
As if having parents that are still married would lead to the dad giving him the 50k Naira.
If the dad doesn't have...he doesn't have!!
All the skit makers advertise/influence these betting platforms. Maybe he was in debt! Maybe he wanted to impress a girl! Maybe he put his money into a ponzi scheme and has been defrauded. None of these reasons have to do with having divorced parents, Stella!!!
Pardon the typo.
Deletecommitting *suicide
Thank you. We need to be careful
DeleteI agree with you SMH, that Stella's footnote was off point.
DeleteThis is sad
ReplyDeleteWhich "peace" is a person who committed suicide resting in?
ReplyDeleteContrary to your belief, he’s not going to hell so yes he’s in peace
DeleteLate teen and early twenties is a delicate stage of life. All manner of influence. God please guide and guard our children.
ReplyDeleteso sad...might have gotten himself in one trouble or the order.
ReplyDeleteChai...so sad.
ReplyDeleteSo pathetic 😭😭😭. Depression is real but suicide should not be an option. Rest in peace.
ReplyDeleteYou people should stop blaming the father. What if the father did not have the money requested for? What if the son was in the habit of spending money recklessly? When you were growing up, was it everything you asked for that your parents gave you?
ReplyDeleteThis is quite unfortunate. Life on earth can put undue pressure on ppl, so many give up hope when there is no place to turn and all doors are closed. I say a prayer for him because he did not choose to do the abominable and hurt anyone or do anything diabolical, he chose the most honorable path in his eyes. I hope he finds peace wherever his soul is. Earth life can be excruciatingly panful even to the very young. May all pain be removed from this place one day.
ReplyDeleteStella, you claim that suicide is a consequence of divorce but I disagree. This view is what keeps people like Osinachi in marriages that should never have happened.
ReplyDeleteThe source of bitterness in a nasty divorce is a person you should actually regret marrying. Punishing children for a split proves that the other person deserves their freedom.
To me, underlying mental illness and bitterness due to a bad split is what may have led this poor boy to make this decision. Splitting a family can be done so well that both parents are civil. This is easier when the state holds the financial needs of a child as important instead of telling men to drop 5 thousand a month so they can afford to marry again and breed kids they can't afford to train. A bit of family therapy and perhaps prophylactic medications (SSRIs) and a suicide hotline may have saved this boy's life but as usual, we blame parents for facing reality and ending the nightmare of a failed marriage so their kids can live in peace.
The late boy just needed tools on how to handle pressure but he succumbed to his anxieties instead.
