23-year-old admission seeker commits suicide in Lagos

There was confusion in the FESTAC area of Lagos on Sunday after a 23-year-old, identified only as Ugochukwu, was found hanging in his apartment.

PUNCH Metro learnt that Ugochukwu, who lived on 311 Road, FESTAC Town, had sought admission into a university in Lagos State, and had written the 2015 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination.
It was gathered that Ugochukwu, however, had yet to secure the admission.
Our correspondent gathered that on Sunday at about 12pm, Ugochukwu’s mother, identified only as Ngozi, and his two siblings came back from church to find him hanging in the sitting room.
