An Ogun State-based man reportedly committed suicide on Saturday after his estranged lover stole millions of Naira from him.

The middle-aged man, Samsideen Akinwunmi, who is a carpenter, allegedly hung himself on a CEILING FAN in his bedroom, Vanguard reports.

According to reports, he sent all his children on errands before the incident occurred.

Akinwunmi is said to have left a suicide note, which revealed that he had taken the drastic action because his ex-lover duped him of millions of Naira.
