There
was pandemonium at Iwhrekpokpor, Ughelli, Delta State, after a 32-year-old
banker and mother of two, identified only as Peace, committed suicide over her
husband’s alleged infidelity.
Community
sources said the deceased, who worked with one of the new generation banks
along Market Road, Ughelli, took an insecticide at her residence on Wednesday.
It
was learnt that the couple had separated before their families reconciled them
recently.
Punch
gathered that despite the reconciliation, her husband continued to stay away
from home.
He
was away when she allegedly committed suicide.
A
close friend of the deceased, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said, “Her
lifeless body was discovered in her apartment on Wednesday. She had been having
issues with her husband. She took some drugs and an empty container of an
insecticide, Sniper, was found near her corpse.”
Although
efforts to get confirmation from the state Public Relations Officer, Mr. Andrew
Aniamaka, proved abortive, a police source in the area confirmed the incident.
He
said “She returned home from work and took some mixtures. We are still
investigating the matter.”
