A 23-year-old student of the Federal Polytechnic, Auchi, Edo State, Solomon Oboh, has committed suicide.
The late Oboh, according to sundry reports, was a National Diploma, ND, 1 student of Public Administration.
He was said to have been found dangling in his room on Friday night.
He had been in the class earlier that day when he had some not too nice experience.
An account had it that he felt humiliated for his inability to spell the words: “computer technology” correctly in class.
Another source stated that Oboh left a terse suicide note behind.
The source said that the deceased instructed that his mobile phone should be given to one Sandra, whom he begged for forgiveness in the suicide note.
The source described the said Sandra as Oboh’s girlfriend and that they were course mates.
“Solomon was in class on Friday and left for home after class; we only came home later in the evening to find him dangling from the ceiling of his room at Bawack area of South Ibie.
“He was a very quiet boy who took his academics very serious. He was not going out and never showed any sign of depression or whatsoever,” the source explained.
When contacted the Polytechnic spokesperson, Mr Mustapha Oshiobugie, confirmed the incident.
He, however, said that he had yet to be fully briefed on the details of what led to the fatal incident.
