Effion Otu, a 21-year-old student of Maritime Academy, Oron, Akwa Ibom, committed suicide by hanging himself in his room on Thursday morning after he was reportedly jilted by his girlfriend.

According to reports, the unfortunate incident happened on the same day his family marked the 10th anniversary of his dad’s death in a car accident.

Reports say after the anniversary, his family members left the house and he went to a neighbour to borrow a rope. Moments later, the curious neighbours decided to check on him but found the door locked.

Otu had passed on before they could gain access to him and render any help.

Before hanging himself, he was said a called a friend telling him to tell a certain Blessing at UNICEM (a cement factory located in Calabar, Cross River) that she should be happy that he has killed himself over her.

The deceased had reportedly posted the following message on his Facebook page 6 days ago.

“It’s not about being engaged, married or in a relationship. It’s about being happy, safe, secured, relieved and feeling good. It’s about peaceful state of mind, it’s about sleeping at night without the fear of losing what you’ve got.

“It’s being yourself and not someone else, it’s about feeling loved, happy, respected, understood, cared for and appreciated.! Goodnight my beautiful people!
