How An Usher Committed Suicide Over Alleged Defilement Of Neighbour’s Daughter
- It was gathered that the deceased might have taken his own life after being accused of defiling one of his neighbours’ daughters.
A 45-year-old man accused of defiling a minor has committed suicide in Ika South Local Government Area of Delta State.
The deceased, identified as Jagbefume Oriagioge, allegedly hanged himself in his room at Iregwa Street, Agbor.
Oriagioge, popularly called Pastor, is a native from an Esan community in Edo State and was a dedicated usher at a branch of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Agbor, also known as Freedom Hall parish.
It was gathered that the deceased might have taken his own life after being accused of defiling one of his neighbours’ daughters.
“The deceased was suspected to have ended his life as he could no longer bear the shame of allegedly having carnal knowledge of his neighbour’s female child (minor) and which was discussed at the community palace. The deceased was somebody who was not free with people to really tell who he was. We called him ‘pastor’ because we felt he was one,” a neighbour told Newsmen.
