A 60-year-old building materials
dealer in Ilesa, Osun State, has committed suicide.
The man, simply identified as Sunre,
meaning “sleep well”, jumped into his neighbour’s well at Concord in Oke-Omiru
yesterday.
He was said to have gone to his
neighbour’s house for the Sallah celebration, when the incident occurred.
After having a good time there, it
was gathered that he went to the well and jumped inside it.
His body was found by a neighbour,
who wanted to draw water from the well around 6am yesterday.
His remains were evacuated by men of
the State Fire Service, residents and the police and deposited at a morgue.
A source said the deceased was a
building materials dealer at Adeti Street in Ilesa. He said the late Sunre
attempted to jump into the well on Tuesday but was stopped by his family.
It was learnt that the deceased had
matured and wealthy children.
A source said the late Sunre was
unhappy because he owed someone in Abuja N350,000 and was unable to pay.
Police spokesperson Folasade Odoro
said they were investigating the incident.
