A 12-year-old Junior Secondary School (JSS) 1 student has allegedly committed suicide at Ugbuwangue area of Warri in Delta State for reasons yet to be discovered.
Theboy, simply identified as Godwin was said to be living with his paternal uncle, Okotie- Eboh, prior to the incident last Saturday, September 17.
He was found dead inside his room by the housemaid who discovered the rope which Godwin used to hang his neck as it was attached to a window protector.
An eyewitness, who pleaded anonymity, said the maid discovered the body when one of their neighbours told her after she returned from an errand that Godwin unusually refused to answer his calls to help him with the washing of his car.
“While looking for Godwin to convey the neighbour’s message to him that the maid saw his body, with his tongue and mouth widely open,” the witness said.
The maid, then screamed and called the attention of the neighbours who then called Okotie- Eboh and his wife.
Another witness said Eboh called his wife’s younger sister’s husband to drive him to the police station to make a report.
