Am now mr lucifer for saying the obvious the man that killed himself wrote that no one should cry or empathise with him so why are u bothered? It's a taboo where I come from for one to commit suicide anyone who does the dead body will be thrown into the evil forest.
who made those laws? No be human beings? Is naija fair to the common man? How do you beat a child and expect the child not to cry? When we have refused to fight the government such things like depression would increase in the society....

Headline made it seems like it died because of pressure to get married, while the reason is lack of progress and life struggles.

Rich or broke, marriage is never a man's problem. There are hundreds of women out there ready to marry any type of man.


The man simply lost hope in life, he's not the only one... Millions are going through same thing, they are just hanging on something or fear of afterlife.

If we were consulted before we were born, earth population will be less than a million. Billions of us don't want to be here, if you take religious delusions out... Life has no purpose.

Them put person on this earth without his or her consent to enjoy and suffer shege likewise.

So why are u calling me mr lucifer instead of putting the whole blame on the govt and gullible nigerians who don't have the will power and unity to confront the corrupt govt like the way youths of other sane countries have been doing?

Some family with their unreasonable and unrealistic expectations sef... person never stand well for ground as a man, u dey force am to marry! As in, who does that? Oya they should come and carry his corpse. Please leave people to leave their life. You don't need to tell a man to seek companionship and get married. Please.

Suicide is a complex issue, and there is no single reason why people commit suicide. However, I can provide some insights on how the pressure to get married might contribute to suicidal thoughts or behaviors.

The pressure to get married can be overwhelming, especially in cultures or societies where marriage is highly valued or seen as a milestone. This pressure can come from various sources, including:

1. Family expectations: Family may urge individuals to get married, often due to cultural or social norms.
2. Social stigma: Singles may face social stigma or feel ostracized by their community or peers.
3. Fear of loneliness: The pressure to get married can be driven by a fear of loneliness or being alone in life.
4. Financial security: Marriage is often seen as a means of financial security, which can add to the pressure.

For some individuals, the pressure to get married can lead to:

1. Anxiety and stress: The constant pressure can cause significant anxiety and stress.
2. Feelings of inadequacy: Individuals may feel inadequate or incomplete if they're not married.
3. Loss of identity: The pressure to get married can lead to a loss of identity or a sense of purpose.
4. Mental health issues: The stress and anxiety can contribute to mental health issues, such as depression or anxiety disorders.

In extreme cases, these factors can contribute to suicidal thoughts or behaviors. However, it's essential to that suicide is a complex issue, and there are usually multiple factors at play.

If you or someone you know is struggling with suicidal thoughts or feelings of overwhelm, please reach out to a mental health professional or a crisis helpline for .

Probably a compound issue. No money and no partner to go through life with.

He should have known people must talk.
You marry, they start checking your womb.
You born one, they tell you to give him/her a sibling. You born girls, they say your family name go end. You born boys, they say no daughter to care for you in old age.

Life na per head. As our fingers are unequal, so are our paths also different.

Stand strong and give it time.

May his soul rest in peace.

Absolutely true.... I've never liked it here, nothing here makes sense. It's all much Ado about nothing. The note he left behind indicates a very sad man who just can't cope anymore but still don't want to be a burden to anyone even in death. The "thanks" made it deeper. I hope he's finally found rest.

What is he doing when his mates are marrying? Everything is not about money. You get to a stage in life that u do what's necessary irrespective of ur situation. If you want to wait till when u get money before getting married, u will wait tire cos money may not come on time. Get a girl, impregnate her and start ur life. I have never seen anyone dying of hunger unless you are a lazy brat.

Impregnate, give birth and continue the circle of suffering

It's not about giving it time. The problem is that most people are not enlightened enough to seek professional help for mental challenges. If this man could have sought therapy on time, perhaps he would not have hung himself. Ignorance makes people suffer mental health issues alone, and maybe someday finally give in to suicidal ideations. Not everyone is as resilient.

Nobody understands depression until they go through it.

But human beings are resilient and want to find a reason to live.

May God send us help when we need it.

Imagine pressuring a man who is under stress to get involved in a bigger emotional stress (marriage to a woman).

He decided to just go and rest.

not everyone can handle pressure like u......,pls be nice............
Oga u are an adult so If u have a very healthy self esteem no one can pressure u even ur family ... Personally anyone that tries it in my family and it becomes much and I'll temporarily block the person both for calls and WhatsApp, that's my mentality... Even my own parent knows.. As a man u need to be very decisive, if babe try pressure u, dump her and move on, ur sanity is more important than any relationship wether blood or romantic.
