A Facebook user identified as Onoh Chukwuma on Tuesday
reportedly took his own life by ingesting an insecticide allegedly for losing
N2.5m to betting.
Onoh had on his Facebook wall posted a message saying that it
was his last day on earth and that he was going to meet his maker.
Unknown to those reading the post, he had already consumed
the insecticide before making the announcement.
In his post, he thanked some individuals, saying,
"Today is my last day on earth! I'm going to meet my maker. Thank you
Chima Anyaso, Ikukuoma Abia, Kelvin Jombo Onumah, Ekwueme Ohafia, and my
friends. My spirit is with you all."
Upon learning of his distress, friends rushed Onoh to Madonna
Hospital, Umuahia.
However, despite the efforts of doctors to resuscitate him,
he did not survive.
It was reported that Onoh had allegedly lost N2.5m to betting
and could not bear the shame and pressure from those he borrowed money
from.
A friend, sharing the news of his demise, expressed
heartbreak, recounting the futile attempts by medical professionals to revive
him.
Another Facebook user questioned the deceased's decision,
mentioning that Onoh had N1m and borrowed N1.5m to play a bet that
failed, leading to his tragic end due to shame from debtors.
A Facebook user, Ibeako Esther Chisom, wrote, “Onoh Chukwuma
Richard, I am heartbroken. I watched the doctors and nurses giving you pressure
to see if you can come back but all proved abortive and your pause dropped as
the doctor confirmed you dead right in front of me and other of your
friends.
“Onoh Chukwuma Richard, you really cut down the plans God has
for you by taking your life by yourself. Sleep on. I am heartbroken."
Another user, Obika James Abuchi, wrote, “U had 1m and
borrowed 1.5m to play bet, it failed, cuz of the shame from debtors you took
your life? Onoh who taught you this? ”
Friends have since taken to his Facebook page to send condolences.
