Man, 20, commits suicide in church premises

The remains of a young parishioner, simply identified as Kachi, was found hanging in the early hours of Friday at the Hall of Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church Port Harcourt. The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the development is causing panic among residents of the area. It was learnt that the deceased, an indigene of Imo, was a devoted Catholic and former Mass servant of the church. Some parishioners, at the scene, told NAN that the deceased was a taxi driver, who plied his trade at the popular Aggrey/Borokiri road in the city. The parishioners expressed shock over the incident and wondered why the deceased would commit suicide especially, as he was a devoted Christian.One of the parishioners, who identified himself as Magnus, said that late Kachi was popularly known as ‘Fabregas’ due to his football skills and dedication to youth activities in the church.“Kachi until his death was about 20 years old; unmarried and a hard working young man who was loved. “We tried to locate where he lived but we were unable to do so due to the fact that he moved to a new apartment which is unknown to us. “As we speak, nobody has come out to say exactly why Kachi killed himself,” he said. Another member of the church, who gave her name as Nkechi, alleged that the deceased took his life because the owner of the taxi retrieved the vehicle from him few days ago. “Kachi was not married and had been sleeping in the church hall. “The taxi he drove was on hire purchase and I learnt that the owner of the vehicle took back the car; maybe because he wasn’t meeting up with condition of their agreement.
