A 300-level student of Medical Laboratory Science, University of Benin, Christabell Omoremime Buoro, has committed suicide after a breakup with her boyfriend of many years.

Christabell who is 21 years old was found dead in her hostel flat at Plot 4 Uwaifo Lane, Newton street, Ekosodin area at the back of the University fence.

Her body was discovered after she allegedly took some deadly substance to end her life.

It was gathered that the undergraduate linked her suicide to her breakup with her boyfriend.

A source disclosed that an empty sachet of Klin detergent was found in the spot where she took her life.

According to him, “A small girl of that age will take her life all because of one boy. The policemen that came to evacuate the body were very angry after reading out loud the note she dropped. Thank God that she even dropped a note, if not the roommates would have been in hot soup, because investigation would have began from that point.”

Meanwhile, Police officers at the Ugbowo have invited two persons for questioning over the content of the letter.

Christabel is said to have mixed the deadly insecticide, popularly called Sniper with Sprite drink, and reportedly left a suicide note where she stated that she was about taking her life because the guy she loved didn’t love her in return after her boyfriend broke up with her.

The Public Relations Officer of the University of Benin, Mr Michael Osasuyi, confirmed the incident, saying that the institution was waiting for a detailed briefing.

It was gathered that the suicide note, which is already in custody of the police at Ugbowo police station, was addressed to two persons, names withheld and the two persons have been invited to the police station for questioning.

About 12 university students have so far committed suicide over love-turned-sour relationship in the last one month across the country.

21years old? WTF!
When we tell them small girls to do away with relationship at that very young age, they call us names and say we are not civilised.
Our parents also do have misunderstanding in their relationship (as husbands and wives) but they are matured enough to deal with it tactically.

Dear young girls, you'll be tempted, they will say you're uncivilised, nevertheless, do away with unncessary relationship that will lead to a depression you cannot handle. You're too young to deal with romantic relationship. Be wise!

It's high time I try this thing called sniper.. And see how it works.
