It was a sad Wednesday for the family of a political office holder in Benue State, Mr John Awange, as their 22-year-old son, popularly called “Daddy,” was found dead under the old bridge in Makurdi where he had hanged himself.

Awange is a Gubernatorial Liaison Officer of Guma Local Government area of the state. His son, who had just completed the Senior Secondary School Education, was said to have left the family house penultimate Tuesday without informing anyone about his whereabouts only to be found dead under the old bridge.

According to Tartor Suemo, a 400-level student of Benue State University, who claimed to be a cousin to the deceased, he was last seen on Tuesday, September 20, 2011 at about 10.00p.m.

Suemo said that the late “Daddy” had just finished his SSCE examination and was looking forward to gaining admission to the university.

No one could say precisely why the young man decided to take his life but a neighbour to the deceased, who did not want his name in print, told the Nigerian Tribune that he had always complained of persistent headache and was recently discharged from the hospital.

He added that the deceased was once heard threatening to commit suicide if the headache would not stop.

Confirming the incident, the Police Public Relations Officer(PPRO) of the state police command, ASP Ejike Alaribe, said investigation was ongoing to uncover the circumstances leading to the death of the young man.

Thorough investigations should be carried out, the story doesn't sound like someone who would want to kill himself. I suspect murder but suicide in disguise. Moreover the boy is optimistic and happy to gain admission into the University soon, so why would he end his dreams because of headache?
