‘I Will Rather Die Than Sin’: 22-Year-Old Arabic Student Commits Suicide

A 22-year-old student of Sheikh Kamaldeen Arabic School, Ilorin, identified as Alfa Musa, has reportedly committed suicide.

Musa was found hanging in his room at Dagbenu compound in Ogidi area of Ilorin, Kwara State on December 7, 2023.

While confirming the incident, the state Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Ejire Adetoun Adeyemi, disclosed that an investigation has commenced into the incident.

The deceased according to the spokesperson, in a suicide note wrote, “To my mum and dad, I am sorry, I did this because God did not answer my prayers, I will rather die than commit sin, please, forgive me, I love you, bury me at home.”

Reports said one of his friends paid a visit to his residence on the day of the incident but found the door to his room locked.

“After repeated knocks on the door, there was no response, yet he was in the room, hence the door was forced open and the deceased was found hanging.

“An empty paint container which he allegedly used to hang himself was also found in his room.”

One of his neighbours in the area described the deceased, who hails from Osun State as a comfortable and devout Muslim.
