Reasons that led to the death of Fred Omorogbe, a 29-year-old Nigerian who hails from Edo State, Nigeria remains an unfortunate mystery as many wonders why a young man in his prime will decide to end his own life by taking a dive from the fifth floor of his apartment at Esenyurt in Istanbul, Turkey.
According to eye witness account, close friends of the deceased stated that Omorogbe’s death came to them as a shock. They noted that informatıon surrounding his death is already in the public domain and had remained that ‘he commıtted suicide’ the reasons behind his decision were unknown.
A text message was found on his phone (Suicide note) and sent to a frıend, which speculates that his death may have been linked to depression.
According to extracts of the text message, Mr. Omorogbe may have been obsessed about something which probably relates to peer group, relationship and trust issues, he extended his love to his family and friend, wishing that he could do more.
The message reads:
“I hope this gets across to the right people
anyway, to the people who ever genuinely
supported me, friends and famıly i love you
it hasn’t been easy but i am happy to met
some of you, i learnt that things aren’t always
the way it seems
not to blame anyone but watch the company
you keep and the people you render help to as
some don’t have same intentions as you
do (Trust nobody)
i am not a saint myself so if i ever wronged
anybody i hope you find it in your heart to
forgive me and pray for me
take care of mama for me and i pray she finds
the strength to keep being the sweet person
she is
to my Lil cousıns, Loveth, Henry, Sopriye and
Lolade, i love you guys so so much and i
Wısh i could do more for you guys
I hope thıs decision takes the pains away and i
find rest and peace of mind that i always
Wanted!
Be kind always ….love and light’
