According to sources, the student who was of Faculty of Education, initially took poison but after it was not as fast as he wanted, he climbed a tree and hung himself.

He further stated in the letter that he didn’t know the meaning of life, claiming that his father has millions of naira, but he can’t afford a smart phone of even N50,000.
