A popular Nigerian bike rider in Lagos, Nigeria’s commercial city, identified only as Ahmed, has committed suicide after battling a series of debts.
Yaahoo Journalist understands that the bike rider who is reported to be popular in the Agege area of Lagos, committed suicide on Tuesday when he returned from work where he had gone to transport his passengers.
The popular Nigerian biker was found dangling below the ceiling fan in his room. Ahmed was said to have hung himself after he returned from work.
An eyewitness in the area who pleaded anonymity said Ahmed committed suicide in his home where he lives with his three children and wife on Shoretire street in Agege.
The eyewitness said Ahmed must have taken his life due to the financial mess he had been swimming in as he was said to be owing debts and couldn’t pay up due to his low and pitiable financial state.
The eyewitness said that Ahmed could barely feed his family; the eyewitness attributed that as the main reason for Ahmed’s frustration that eventually led to his death.
