A fashion designer in Isale Asa Ilorin, Kwara State, identified simply
as Kemi, has committed suicide after an alleged uncomplimentary
comment from her mother, also identified simply as Mummy Kemi.
Our correspondent gathered on Sunday that Kemi, 21, who lived
with her parents poisoned herself with a locally-made rat poison
otherwise known as sole lasan.
A source said that Kemi and her mother had a misunderstanding on
Friday night. It was said that in the course of the altercation,
Mummy Kemi told her daughter that she was “a complete failure
and a disgrace to this family.”
The lady, who was said to have been angered over her mother’s
uncomplimentary comment, went into her room.
It was said that her mother, after the quarrel, went to her grinding
machine shop which was nearby.
The source said, “When Mummy Kemi came in about 30 minutes
later, she saw that kemi was writhing in pains. She was said to have
raised the alarm.”
PUNCH Metro learnt that suspecting that the lady had taken some
poison, sympathisers rushed her to a nearby hospital for medical
treatment.
The hospital officials were said to have advised them to go to the
University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital.
She, however, died before she could be taken to the hospital.
The state command’s Police Public Relations Officer, Mr. Olufemi
Fabode, could not be reached as his telephone number indicated
that his number was not available.
