A 29-year-old man, Richard Boadi Abunya, has allegedly committed suicide by hanging at Sehwi Bodi in the Western North region.
The deceased was a mobile money vendor and credit card dealer at Sehwi Bodi.
In the early hours of Friday, January 13, 2023, a woman went to his house to buy a credit card but she knocked his door several times without response.
A sister of the deceased also knocked and called out but to no avail, and therefore decided to force open the victim’s door.
They broke into his room to the horrible spectacle of Richard hanging on a crossbar in his room with a sponge around his neck.
It was not immediately known what necessitated his action but the family later discovered a letter on a sheet of paper in what appears to be a suicide note.
The note reads:
“Sorry Everyone, in life not what you expect comes through, you just have to face the reality of life.
I don’t want to disappoint anyone.
Love you all.
To the family
To all my friends
To the love of my life (Nana).
Only God knows what has caused the saddened pain. Let’s meet once again.
Dad, I know you can’t hold this but I don’t want to suffer like my mum. It shall be well everyone.
Desmond Abunya, you have my trust, hustle to hold the family. God bless you all
Signed.”
The body has since been deposited at the Juaboso government hospital morgue by the Bodi Police for further investigation.
