An NCE graduate, Idris Shuaib, 22, has reportedly committed suicide in Kwara State.

The incident, Daily Trust learnt, occurred on Thursday in Gwanara, Baruten Local Government Area of the state.

Late Idris hailed from the Ankara Wooro Compound and his lifeless body was discovered dangling on a cashew tree by relatives.

He reportedly hanged himself over his inability to have sex, according to sources.

It was not clear whether the issue was due to medical condition or social problem.

But our reporter learnt the deceased had made several failed attempts in the past to end his life because of the problem.

The spokesman for the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) in Kwara State, Babawale Zaid Afolabi, who confirmed the incident further revealed that the deceased hanged himself inside his father’s farm located at Gwanara- Munduro road with the aid of rope and a jerrycan.

“But his remains had been brought down from the tree and taken to the hospital for autopsy while further investigations is ongoing,” Afolabi added.
