SAD: Undergraduate commits suicide over inability to make love to his girlfriend

A man in his late thirties, Emeke (surname withheld), who resides at  Igbiegwa Quarters, Ute-Erumu, Ika North East local government, in  Delta State is reported to have committed suicide over his inability to have sexual relations with his girlfriend.


It was gathered that the deceased who was an undergraduate of Delta state university, had reportedly visited several herbalists and churches when he realised it was a persisting problem, but his efforts were futile.
Unable to contain his frustration over his failed genital after desperate efforts, Emeke was said to have jumped into a well in his family’s compound and committed suicide.


According to reports, Emekus as he was fondly called by family members and friends was said to have had a heated argument with his girlfriend, Kemi, over his inability to make love and he had promised to make it up to her after which they checked into a guest house at nightfall but his manhood failed him again.


A family member who gave her name as Emilia said on the fateful Monday, after the episode with his girlfriend at the guest house, Emeke sold his clothes and shoes after which he left a suicide note on his bed.
She said she had heard him shouting and came out of the room to find out what was wrong with him only to see him jump into the well.


Many people in the neighbourhood who spoke on the development, described the circumstances surrounding the act as rather mysterious.


The deceased was said to have been buried after payment of a fine fixed by elders of the community, who described his action as a taboo, by his family.
