A retired officer of the Nigerian army has reportedly committed
suicide for reasons yet unknown. Captain Friday William tied a rope on
a mango tree outside his apartment and hung himself on it.
One of his neighbours who spoke up said they were shocked when
they woke up in the morning and found the Captain's body dangling from
the mango tree.
It was also discovered that before he hung himself, he had sent a
text message to his first son at about 10pm that night. Probably a few
minutes before tying the rope. He sent a text message to his son
consoling him about his father's death and also instructing him to
take good care of his siblings.
A few of his neighbours wondered why he did it as they felt he
was doing well, had three cars, an apartment house, and a good home
with children. He had made good money from his retirement benefits
years ago.
His son did not get his text message until the following morning
when he was called and given the tragic news.
