Security officials prevent jobless graduate from committing suicide

Sunday Omotayo, an unemployed graduate of Mechanical Engineering from Ekiti State University attempted to kill himself yesterday in Akwa Ibom Staate due to frustration, Punch Reports.

Omotayo who had gone to Akwa Ibom state to seek employment hoping that his services as a trained mechanical engineer would be needed having heard of the infrastructural development happening in the state, was greatly disappointed as he was not absorbed by any company in the state.

Frustrated by his inability to secure a job in the last ten years since he graduated from the university, Omotayo yesterday morning went to the Akwa Ibom State Prison Services asking prison officials to shoot him dead or put him in prison where he could rot and die. Continue...
A prison official who craved anonymity said when Omotayo came into the prison premises looking well dressed with a tie on, he ran towards them asking that they shoot him that he is tired of living. The prison officers who immediately cocked their gun, listened more to what he was saying.
"The next thing he said was ‘shoot me, shoot me, I want to die, I am tired of this world’ The prison official said.
Omotayo was later overpowered by the police, who counseled him and forced him into a bus heading towards the Ibom Plaza roundabout.

While in a speeding bus, Omotayo did the unthinkable. He deliberately jumped out of the bus along Wellington Bassey Way, Uyo, Akwa Ibom State capital, expecting to be crushed to death by other vehicles. According to sources on the street which was close to the State Government house, it took a while for policemen to get him out of the road. He insisted that he must put an end to his poverty-stricken life by committing suicide.

In an interview with Punch later, Omotayo said "There is no state that I have not gone to in search of a job in the past 10 years. I came to Akwa Ibom because this is my last hope because of the stories of Governor Godswill Akpabio and his uncommon transformation. I came with the hope that with what is going on in the state, getting a job would be easy so that I can begin to be a man. But since I came, I discovered that many people from Akwa Ibom are also crying because of poverty and joblessness"

    14. You people abusing and cursing out anon 11:16am don't even get the point and that's soooo sad for Nigeria. Yes, it is true the post has nothing to do with the anti-gay bill but the point is that government should be working more towards creating more job opportunities for the talented and qualified unemployed mass we have in the country right now but instead they were focusing on the gay bill. How has the bill helped this young man who has been seeking employment for the last 10years all over the country? We Nigerians need to start thinking outside the box and start connecting things. I mean look at the recent NIS saga where the unemployed millions were given false hopes, they were charged fees even though they had no chance in hell of getting any jobs and people even died. Our senators and reps are old as heck, instead of discussing ways to better our lives; they all go to conferences to sleep and play games on their laptops as we've seen the pictures online. We also had a pervert try to legalize child marriage and the list goes on...... By the way, N50billion was set aside for a National Job Creation Scheme in the 2011 budget; http://www.budgetoffice.gov.ng/2011appropriation_actnew.pdf Do we know what happened to that money? No! Do we know how many jobs were created with it? No! But instead we're all here celebrating bills that won't get us out of the predicament the country is already in and jumping at each other's throats when we have difference of opinions on issues that are not even of priority right now. Which way Nigeria? Which way Nigerians? ......... Just Me

Sometimes I wonder d meaning of your comment will be visible after approval means to Linda, because she keep on encouraging people that has no business being in this blog by posting their useless and senseless comments. Linda on my own opinion you are no more dancing to make money, losing few traffic will never reduce anything from you. Don't turn your blog into a place where some people come to show their frustration.

There is always a way out, God knew what he was saying when he said in the bible in ecclesiastics, that "when there is life, there is hope, a living dog is better than a dead lion"

  35. Omotayo, as a mechanical Enginner, you will be very good in Mathematics and Physics, which invariably means that you are not jobless.

    I presently work with a bank, but before my appointment, i was jobless for four years and also taught for four years too in a private school where i was earning close to nothing.

  71. Why should someone commit suicide because of lack of job when there are so many decent meager jobs one can do. for the past ten years if he was able to take up any little job by now he should have risen to a certain height in life. The Bible emphatically stated it and i quote "Do not despise little beginnings". But the problem some of us have is that we want to hit it real big at once no matter what it cost us.

  89. we are very wicked and brainless ppl, because of this act in many other countries, people stood up and ensured that change comes. instead we are talking about publicity stunts. even if its a publicity stunt is he lying?. Nigeria is dying, and all we do is sit watch, kill the innocent, teach the poor how to cope in their situation and praise the rich.....for the stupid people that posted nonsense i dont think you know what poverty is....

  93. He chose the wrong state and Governor to do that. Please try Edo state next time. Hear the Governor doles out cash anyhow and is philanthropic in nature. Nice stunt though.

  95. CNN in one of its recent broadcasts, posits that 100 million Nigerians live below the poverty line. The National Bureau of Statistics said over 54% of youths in Nigeria are jobless, while the World Bank puts the figure at 56%. According to Dr Okonjo Iweala, the misery index increased in 2013.The consequences of this is that the Youths and Poor are becoming more susceptible to crimes.

    According to Wole Olanipekun (SAN), former Unibadan Chancellor ……“Go to the Streets, …you see anger and frustration …..suffering, poverty, anguish and malady written boldly on the faces of several Nigerians”. Chief Mike Ozekome (SAN)described Youth Unemployment as the father of Boko Haram, Militancy, Kidnapping, Robbery, Rituals etc.

  97. Nah i dont think he wanted publicity. Jumping down a moving vehicle he meant real business. If it had just ended with the prison incident i would have concluded that it was publicity.

  103. I can understand his frustration, but then again I always have these reservations whenever I hear us,Nigerians talk about unemployment. This guy is a mechanical engineer, he naturally shouldn't be looking too hard to get "employed". Seeing that he has not being able to secure "jobs" in years, the mechanical engineer in him should come out & figure out small small things he can create. Mechanical engineers should be more of creators than consumers. The problem most time with us Nigerians is we all want to start from the biggest points.
    I wish the compatriot good luck & God's Blessings.
