Man, 29, hangs self over HIV/AIDS status

A 29-year-old man hanged himself after medical results of his protracted illness showed he was HIV/AIDS positive, though he did not leave any note to say why he committed suicide.

The incident, which occurred at Sangere village in Girei Local Government Area of Adamawa State, took place in the house where the deceased, Emmanuel Peter, was solely occupying while serving as a securityman and has since thrown the community into panic.

The uninhabited house where the deceased committed suicide is said to be owned by an unnamed woman, who the deceased family said contributed immensely to offsetting the medical bills of the deceased during his protracted illness.
