| LATE KELVIN RHIMA |
A young man identified as Kelvin Rhima has committed
suicide at Modinatu Street in Ogba area of Lagos State. The lifeless body of
Kevin who works with a new generation bank was found dangling from a ceiling
fan in his mini apartment by neighbours at about 8:00 p.m. on Tuesday.
It was gathered that neighbours became worried on Tuesday
evening when they noticed that Kevin hasn’t been outside since morning.
Unfortunately, when they looked through the window, they found his body hanging
on the ceiling fan.
Immediately after the discovery, they invited policemen to
break into the apartment. According to a neighbor, Barry Olarenwaju, “Kelvin
was a calm person so we didn’t notice on time. When we didn’t see him outside
on Tuesday morning, we felt that was his lifestyle, that he was sleeping
inside, but when it was an evening we got worried because there was no padlock
at his entrance to indicate that he had gone out.
“When we tried to open the door, it was locked from inside
that was when we began to bang on the door. By the time we went to the window,
we saw him dangling and his tongue sticking out. From the look of things it was
obvious that it was on Monday he died because the body had begun to bloat”.
Another tenant in the building who spoke on the condition of
anonymity said immediately we discovered the body, we raised the alarm, it was
a battle before the police came to the scene to access the situation.
“We went to Area G on Tuesday night to inform them about
the situation they asked us to go to Pen Cinema division, which we did.
Ironically, when the police came, they wanted to detain all the tenants, we had
to pay N2,000 each so that we won’t be implicated in a matter we don’t know
anything about. After which they still abandoned the body with the excuse that
the mortuary was filled up. They only snapped pictures.”
It was gathered that policemen from Pen-cinema who came to
the compound to access the scene saw the suicide note that he wrote and
addressed to his father and girlfriend.
Meanwhile, Nigerians on Twitter yesterday tried desperately
to get through to a man, with the Twitter handle @EmmilyEmmanuel, who tweeted a
suicidal note on the platform. Yesterday morning, the Twitter user said he is
tired and cannot “push again”. He asked people to tell his mum that he loves
her as he revealed his plans to take his life.
He wrote: “Death is knocking at my door. I will miss
everyone and everything here. Twitter has been fun to me since I joined. I
didn’t have the courage to push through last year. But I do now. If you are
seeing this, tell my Mama, I Love her but I couldn’t push again.”

He added: “I was looking for a courage to do this a long
time ago. I twitted here last year that I got a job. Guess what? I worked for
one year but was paid for five months. Life was okay for me. Had a car I was
using for bolt. The owner of the car took back the car and am back to square one.
“
It was also reported that some Twitter users have reached out to him but say he isn’t
responding. Those who have his number say he’s not picking his calls. He’s also
not replying to his DMs.
Below are some of the reactions this has generated on twitter:

Thank God, I was so bothered since I saw the guys tweet yesterday. Thank you too for reaching out to him in time
Tough love is not fear. Fear is of the devil. He doesn’t need tough love, he needs God’s kind of love. If you’re gonna talk about God in truth, then comfort him the way God would want. Did God send you to demonstrate tough love or to demonstrate love?
Even you didn't offer this " God's kind of love" of yours. See your understanding of the scripture is limited. Jesus says "... FEAR only God, who is able to destroy both soul and body in HELL.
Matthew 10:28, read also Luke 12:5. Jesus must be a fear monger to warn of hell.
April 1st last year I had over 1.3m and a job nd by April 28 I had lost my job and my savings. My girlfriend left me, took my son away, I don't have parents and I was within seconds of ending my life until i found the strength to beg on nairaland https://nairaland.com/5780636/lost-job-girlfriend-dumped-me… I want to learn how to install CCTV cameras or 3D wall papers and tiles. I'm broke, jobless and depressed People are reaching out to him and he was even talked to yesterday. tweeted about it. did a good job.
I know tweeter folks can be brutal but our humanity is our strength not our weakness.
Hang in there bro regarding your suicidal plan, grave has no peace and its not a consolation or peaceful place. Hell has more fury and that is where you head to if you commit suicide, suffering continues. Pity your parents and the sadness you will cause them by killing yourself.
Shhhhhh
Silence....
Don't tell everyone ur family is filled with stupid people.
Hide your shame na.

However a check by TheNewsHall on the twitter handle @EmmilyEmmanuel shows that the account is private and his tweets can only be accessed if you follow him. So this could well be a sick stunt to gain followers on twitter!
