Early this morning, The University of Nigeria, Nsukka woke this morning to a most grizzly sight. A young undergraduate- who was identified as Onyebuchi Okonkwo- a 300-Level student of Physics and Astronomy and resident in the famous Franco Hostel hanged himself in a dilapidated structure close to the Franco football pitch on Campus. Roommates of the dead student said he left the room around 2am this morning and they thought he had gone to study, only for his corpse to be found dangling from a rope this morning. Before his death, he was a 3rd year Physics and Astronomy 1st class Class Representative student in his early 20's. On the suicide note he left behind was written "Controversy Is Now Over".....The numbness among the students gathered around the body has been upsetting, to say the least and has highlighted the very thin line between frustration and death! What controversy could he have been going through that would make him take his life?? Photos of the victim below but please viewer discretion is advised as the pictures are quite disturbing..................
UNN can frustrate students!!! I dunno if d lecturers derive joy in ruining ppls lives... We came to school to learn but what we get is frustration which might lead d weak to commit suicide! Those who got lucky dropped out and moved to another school... Imagine a lecturer telln u he'd fail u on the day of ur exam!!! Just bcz u don't wnt to sleep with him!!!! GEJ shud do smth abt dis and not changing d names of universities!!!
