The unnamed elderly man hanged himself in Anambra State
A shocking incident has claimed the life of a grandfather who killed himself as a result of hardship in the land. According to an eyewitness, Comr Eze Harris Chuma, the old man killed himself because of the suffering and hardship he has been undergoing.
Chuma said: "For quite some time now, it has been Suicide. Suicide. Suicide. Tuffiakwa !!
"This is what plays out in Anambra my darling state.
"So much anguish and pains, one wonders what is the government of the day doing to alleviate the pains of the aged? What is the structure in place to promote and ensure quality welfare package for the senior citizens?"
According to him, the government must take a bold step to arrest the situation before it becomes too late.
"What is the connect[ion] between the government and the elderly in our society?
"Why in this time and age an old man would hang himself to register disappointment and frustrated living?
"Why would this man end up this way? What went wrong and why toe this dishonourable path?
"Government should look into the plights of the elderly in the state.. This is becoming a norm. Suicide. Suicide. Suicide.
"The Ajile Mopol Governor should sit up and arrest this ugly trend in Anambra." Chuma lamented
