82 years old man commits suicide in Ondo

An 82-year-old man, Oriola Adegoke,
has reportedly hung himself to death in
Ondo State.
Adegoke was found hanging in a room
in his apartment at 45, Ayeyemi Street
during the weekend.
According to reports , the daughter of
the deceased, Taye Adegoke, raised the
alarm after she saw her father dangling
from a rope on the roof.
Describing the octogenarian’s death as
a mystery, residents said he was an
easy-going gentleman.
It is alleged that the deceased might
have terminated his own life as a result
of a protracted illness of his daughter
on which he had spent a large amount
of money, however, immediately after
the body was found, the residents sent
for some traditional worshipers to
perform traditional rites to remove the
corpse for burial in line with the
culture of the town.
