A 21-year-old boy, Effiong Otu a student of Maritime Academy
Oron, has committed suicide on Thursday, 10th of July, 2014 because
his girlfriend jilted him. Ironically, the 10th of
July was also the 10th anniversary of his father’s death in a car
accident. After the family prayed and marked the anniversary, his mother left
for work.
Effiong later went to one of their
neighbours to borrow a rope, locked his room door and committed the act. Before
neighbours could figure out what he did with the rope, he had already hanged
himself. His room door was later forced to open, and they met his body dangling
from the rope he had used for the suicide.
One of his friends who also rushed
to the scene said the 21-year old called him before committing the act, that he
should tell his girlfriend, blessing, that she should now be happy that he has
killed himself for her.
His last Facebook post also shows
he has been depressed.
