Young man hangs self after saying goodbye on Facebook

Ayodeji Balogun (pictured above) wrote what you see above on his Fabebook page yesterday evening, and by this morning, he was dead. Friends of the deceased said he injected himself with Go 90 at his home early this morning, and later hanged himself on a mango tree at his residence in Ipaja, Lagos. 

Ayodeji was a student of the National Open University, Lagos and an ex-student of CMS Grammar school. There's never an excuse for suicide. May his soul rest in peace.

There are plenty of excuses for suicide...

What? Since when did Nigerians start acting like white people that commit suicide because of what people say about them?

ken said...

Linda are u sure this guy is dead? he had activity on his facebook 2hours ago.

Anonymous said...

What did they say about him?

Uche said...

Linda , you are so ignorant. Causes of suicide include depressive illnesses, adjustment reactions, acute stress reactions as well as psychosis and psychotic-like illnesses. there is an interplay of neurochemicals leading to unfortunate situations. Your role on your blog should be to alert people regarding mental health and encourage treatment ranging from counselling, psychotherapy as well as medical treatment. That is why it is studied as a science just like physical illnesses are.With appropriation of evidenced based treatment, people get better in many cases and other structures may be put in place to help stabilisation e.g spiritual awareness,CBT, DBT etc.Look at PET imaging of Dopamine receptors of those who have attempted suicide( if you know what i mean). My Sister, for Nigeria to move forward economically and academically every one should educate themselves a little more than the basics .

The Devil has finally found tenancy in Nigeria. What the heck did they say about him in school that prompted this suicidal move? I'm curious and would really like to know. Worse case scenario they probably called him gay. Hen hen so what's the biggy. This is so reminiscent of the gay boy situation who was video taped having sex with his gay partner in his college dorm in New Jersey. Thereafter, said his goodbyes on FB and jumped into the Hudson River.

THIS YOUNG MAN COMPLAINED ON FACEBOOK ASKING PEOPLE TO GIVE HIM ADVICE ON HOW TO DEAL WITH HIS EDUCATIONAL STRESS!! HE RELIED ON A FRIEND SAYING HE IS HAVING SO MUCH DIFFICULTIES IN HIS ACADEMIC WORK AND THE WHOLE THING IS DEPRESSING HIM!! THIS GUY ASKED FOR HELP IN LOCAL FORUMS BUT I GUESS HE DIDNT GET ENOUGH HELP. PARENTS THIS DAYS DON'T HAVE AFFECTION OR RELATIONSHIP WITH THEIR CHILDREN; THAT IS WHY MANY NOW CONFIDE IN BLOGS FOR ADVICE; AT THE END O THE DAY; PEOPLE INSULT THEM AND THEIR CONDITION WHICH LEADS TO SUCH SUICIDE ACT..

A lot of young people are suffering from all sorts of depression. We need to help as a caring society. Kind words, hugs and love go a loooong way in helping. You need to visit Yaba Left to see cases of depression. Not complete madness o, just depression. Lets make someone happy, can we? No hate words to people that need our help psychologically.

LOL @ a suicide making the headlines in Nigeria. There are dozens of them daily in the US. Rarely makes the news except it's a particularly spectacular one or it's a celebrity.

Anonymous said...

You shouldn't call someone ignorant when you exhibit sever signs of it urself! Linda is saying the same thing dere is no excuse meaning that every problem deffs has a solution all you have to do is look for it, mental problems included. The guy in question was obviously not clinically depressed he was overwhelmed by shame which humans a wont to do once in a while. :)

Anonymous said...

Uche,I share same thoughts with you on this.
It's a shame he took his life and it sounds like schizophrenia but probably not caught on time before self harming.
It's heart wrenching all the same...condolences.

' This is so reminiscent of the gay boy situation who was video taped having sex with his gay partner in his college dorm in New Jersey. Thereafter, said his goodbyes on FB and jumped into the Hudson River.'
The callousness of this comment is amazing. First of all, this boy hadn't told anyone he was gay. He was still trying to deal with it when he was taped having sex. Even straight people in Nigeria would be rolling on the floor crying about shame if they were taped. Do you know anything about his background? Anything about where he came from or his thoughts? Be sitting on your high horse making dumbass assumptions. And you wonder why the rate of suicide is climbing. Maybe because instead of having someone to talk to they only have people to judge them, which is the only thing we know how to do in Nigeria. We're one of the most ignorant countries in the world and we wear it with pride. And then there's your comment about 'no biggy' about him being gay. Where the hell have you been sleeping? In a country that has made being gay illegal and where the biggest sinners can come to LIB and insult people because of their sexuality, it's no biggie if he said he was gay abi? Bloody hypocrite. Abeg park jo.

Do you knw how bad he must av felt about what he tlked about?? Its a psychological trauma nd thats why teaching people to overcome such feeling is learnt nd institutions..Well, I pray God forgives and count him worthy for a place in paradise...RIP boy..

Depression, Anxiety are all mental health issues and any of these can lead to suicide. This didn't just start today, it seems like it cos now we have more access to information (thanks to the internet).
People have been committing suicide for various reasons since time in memorial...
With that said suicide isn't an option. The man clearly needed help which he didn't receive. Now he is gone.
I hope and pray he finds peace.

Oh my God!!! I can relate to this cause I had a problem in school,that was so humilating, I was so depressed,but suicide was never an option.some people are not that strong,I had the support of my family,and a few real friends,the whole world sank on me,I felt like I would not make it through but I held my head up high
(•̩̩̩̩͡_•̩̩̩̩͡) and God saw me through!! He might not have had the kind of help I did. Suicide is never an option!!! Seek professional help or get a journal and write all your thoughts and anger in it.For whosoever is going through the same thing right now,the Lord is your strength and he can see you through!!

Suicide is a strange thing I am hearing in Nigeria.God have mercy on us all.

Anonymous said...

Lots of people are very IGNORANT (yes, I said it) about suicide. May we never be in a place so low that we stop thinking rationally and see death as the only way out. Depression, schizophrenia etc are ILLNESSES that lead people to take their own lives. It really bothers me when people rain abuses on suicide victims. Not everybody has the right support systems. What we should be doing is seeking education and not displaying ignorance by thinking suicide victims wished a suicidal mindset on themselves. Suicide is horrible and is, of course, never the solution but most victims get to a point where they TRULY BELIEVE THEY HAVE NO OTHER CHOICE.

never a good reason. Dont let the enemy break you. When you are pushed to the wall, turn around and fight back. Dont take away your life. Life is and will always be sacred. How come people are quick to take life but cannot create one hair on man's head?

I cant take it anymore. I dont want to end up a miserable and depressed person due to all these DEVASTATING news I have been hearing since Saturday. I have had enough. What could they have said about you Ayodeji? it can't pass that you had pre-marital sex, had sex for money, stole or you were caught with a man. I understand as someone who professes or is it professed Christ openly and confidently, these things may be as good as you dinning openly with the devil but those condeming you are not your maker and should not have pushed you to the edge. This is just so sad.

Anonymous said...

What did they say. I really want to know. You see what I say about people on all these blogs as well. Some of you are going to have the blood of people on your necks some day. Some people are extremely depressive and mentally ill/unstable. When you attack them, sometimes it is hard for them to handle it. We need to be careful with what we say. Bloggers particularly have been very brutal and ruthless but naija being the land of bring my next door neighbor down by any means necessary is just bothersome..ka sha ma rora. God is definitely going to pay everyone for the works of their hands

He probably is Homosexual and can't stand the stigma , hate and bashing from Nigerians...

Ayodeji said...

@the gurlnxtdoor and anonymous10.21- go and learn your tenses and know what insults are and the difference from constructive criticism. You are part of the problem- nutcases we have in Nigeria. Can you even google and articulate what Uche wrote so intelligently- obviously he / she does have some knowledge and probably deals with such people. Suicide is not just a cultural problem, it is a human problem and in many cases a resultant effect from an illness. It is difficult and painful and right- thinking people would not commit suicide. Learn how to talk right. I agree with him or her that we all need to know more but I think you guys especially have to go back to school and hopefully a decent one! If you like call me names , at least I know you read my piece. The shame of it, what would unschooled people then say if people like you two with Internet access could sound ghetto-like

@ Uche Thx a lot for ur comment. I was abt to say the same thing. Linda ur statements sometimes can be so insensitive, "there is never an excuse for suicide". Please educate yourself and stop feeling like you always have to take a stand on every topic in the world. You start to loose some credibility when you do that. There is never an excuse for ignorance.

Real doctor said...

It would amaze you if you went to any of the psychiatric hospitals and see the calibre of patients they have, from bank executives to children of the high and mighty. folks who had amazing jobs at oil companies to chicks who seemed to have dropped straight out of heaven's assembly line.mental illness is still a taboo in Nigeria and is no way a sign of end times like most ignorant people would say, but unfortunately because of cyber bullies who speak without being well informed,such people never get any help from fora like this.this guy was stressed into a state of depression and following that state are suicidal thoughts that if strong enough push them to actually do it.
I should know cos my genius uncle committed suicide when he was regarded as one of the best brains in this country and my family never talks about his depression cos it was caused by a failed relationship and secondly I hav been a doctor for over a decade.

Anonymous said...

Uche God bless you. Nigerians are way too backward and ignorant. Show me anyone who in ordinary circumstances would want to take their life? Sometime life becomes too much of a burden and if your cries for help go unheeded, then only God can stop you from harming yourself. Linda pray that you never get to a point in your life where you don't want to live anymore then you'll find many reasons to end it.
Let's be more compassionate please. You cannot keep making ignorant statements without conducting some much needed research. Let us help those who need help as not everyone can be strong on their own

SO SAD....may his soul rest in peace.@Uche..u really said a lot of truth. People dont just wake up and decide to kill themselves.

It happens when they are wrongly accused of serious negative things, when they feel betrayed or stripped of their integrity, dignity or value
I am going through a similar situation.

There aint no honour in committing suicide. Only cowards commit suicide cos they don't have the balls to face the challenges of life. "If you have the nerve to commit the crime, you should have the same nerve to face the music"

And mind you, it is an unpardonable sin before God to commit suicide.

There is no rest in peace for you until God forgives you!

Anonymous said...

@ Uche, #realtalk. we tend to underplay depression in our society and other mental and psychological illnesses in this place. we turn everything to spirituality and condemn people based on our religious beliefs. Here we do not have any therapists or people to reach out to. theres medications that help people with this illness. I have suffered from depression since i was 13 and its something i battle with almost everyday. People just look at u and say "oh u have nasty mmood swings or ur very moody". well i wish i had someone to talk to that would really understand, cos sometimes, ur family, ur best friends, ur pastor, dont really understand. Ive had days so low ive contemplated ending it all and how i would do it and the only thing that gets me thru those days and keeps me grounded is my lovely daughter. i dont want to miss out on her life and i must admit my religious beliefs also play a vital role cos i believe its a sin and i wont see my mother again if i dont make heaven.

Fact still remains dpression is real and among us and we shud try and support people with it and not condemn people that lose their battle with this mental illness and take their own lives.

@UCHE, YOU ARE A BIG FOOL. IF U WANT TO LECTURE ON THIS BLOG, FINE! BUT TO START INSULTING LINDA FOR JUST PUTTING UP A NEWS HERE, THEN YOU ,MUST BE IN A STATE OF LUNACY. I MEAN, YOU MUST BE RUNNING MAD. WHAT YOU JUST DID PORTRAYS YOU AS AN IDIOT. IF YOU ARE NOT HAPPY WITH WHAT YOU SEE HERE, WHY NOT HAND YOURSELF TOO, MR. GOOGLE LECTURER.

This is a very sad. unfortunately he died before he could get help for what ever it was that was troubling him.

Unknown said...

Is sad and very unfortunate that he could not get the required help before he killed himself.

Most people commit suicide because of the bad things that people say about them.

Worldwide, some people love to torment other people until they die or commit suicide. Bullying should be a criminal offense worldwide.

Not everyone can take all the rubbish and lies that people tell them and circulate. These wicked people are the ones that should have taken Dana Air and not innocent people.

I wished I knew this guy and convinced him not to take the suicide path.

it is so sad he had to choose that option.depression sucks.i personally would blame someone for taken his or her life till i experienced what it is to be depressed.you wont have joy in anything,you wont consider your parents.you wont be happy over your achievements.it takes the grace of GOD and that STRENGTH which when you are depressed becomes had to get .until you experience it you wont undertstand.i pray for anyone going through this that GOD in his infinte mercy give you that STRENGTH to live life again .i have learnt to let my words and actions make people happy .this has taught me a lot about life too

My advice to his family........


get hold of his phone. go thru his txts and recent calls. if you have access to letters or mails, check them..u may get some revealing information.

My goodness Linda, what kind of followers do you have here? Since when did calling one ignorant become an insult... Mind you I think you are one

@anonymous 9.46am, I commend you for sharing your suffering. Remember depression is an illness just like hypertension or diabetes and it is not your fault and nothing to be ashamed of . Please visit a psychiatrist for medication review and for referral for any psychotherapeutic interventions available in your community. Meanwhile well done for keeping positive.

To Uche... My colleague, I remember those days in medical school and our endeavours in Europe and North America... You always represent.... Well done! Nigerians WAKE UP!
And to you Linda... Traveling overseas more would probably help evolve your ability to think out of the box and inform your followers better

Str8FrmDaHips said...

Ignorance is not an insult..its same thing as not knowing any better..and in this context Linda wrote like someone oblivious to consequences of mental illness/depression..the world is changing we are changing..we are mimicking what the rest of the world is doing..get depressed..instead of seeking help with family..copy what happens in Europe/US..become an introvert and one day top yourself!!..which I must say is very unafrican and frowned upon..we tough people..we supposed to endure..but that was then!!

I am not a Linda fan or anything but she was just being practical there's no reason to commit suicide that's what apsychiatrist will say nah

i am suicidal, one day in my bathroom as i spoke to GOD. i was reminded of how JESUS wanted to die also due to his suffering. he said GOD let this cup pass me by if it is your will. this is what i say now, unlike before where i would say GOD i want to die, let me die i am tired, and thoughts of killing myself. another time as i cried in bed and read my bible i came across a passage that said the man who loves his life will lose it, and he who hates it will keep it for eternal life. this is for suicidal people like me. i have not asked for any ignorant comments here. if you are like me just say this when u are in that mental state dear GOD if its your will let this cup pass me by according to your will and not mine.

I don't understand what people are complaining about regarding Linda's blog. Did i miss something? In summary she said the young man hung himself after posting the above information on facebook and injected himself with some kind of Chemical. So Uche, Y the abuse? She only said did "There's never an excuse for suicide": there are lots of treatment options, seek professional help, talk to someone, take your medications... and the person suggesting she should travel overseas to gain more exposure, shame on you.

you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better.
Youve got an awful lot of text for only having one or 2 pictures.
Maybe you could space it out better?
