A despondent palm wine tapper,
identified as Nwandu (Surname withheld) operating in Ugbolu community near
Asaba, yesterday, allegedly committed suicide following his inability to make
love to his wife in the last few weeks. Reports said that the palm wine tapper,
a native of Ogbaru in Anambra state, has been married to his wife for over
seven years before his sex organ began to disappoint him. Sources said that the
man has been having problem with his genitals since the beginning of the month
of February this year. The resultant failure on his part to satisfy his wife
sexually, gave rise to repeated quarrels especially as blamed malaria for his
dereliction of duty.
We reliably gathered that the
situation persisted until last Thursday night when he allegedly made another
failed attempt. Police authorities in the state confirmed that the body of the
palm wine tapper has been deposited at the Federal Medical Centre Mortuary for
autopsy and added that investigation was ongoing.
Nawa oh!!...did he have to go that far?
