A 58-year-old man, Bamidele Omolayo, has tragically taken his own life by ingesting a chemical substance believed to be a ‘snipper’ in Ondo State.
The sad incident occurred in the Odigbo Local Government Area of the state.
The remains of the deceased were discovered on Thursday near a farming area in Igburowo town. The sudden death of the father of four has plunged the community into deep sorrow, with many residents gathering at the site to view his remains.
Before this heartbreaking incident, Omolayo was said to have engaged in a brief disagreement with family members, during which he expressed suicidal thoughts.
A source informed Daily Trust on Friday that he left his home early in the morning, and notably, no suicide note was found.
However, a bottle containing the substance was located next to him.
