A 17-year-old girl, Temitope Saka, has died after drinking insecticide, Sniper, in the Igando area of Lagos State, Punch reports.
It was gathered that the victim left behind a suicide note in which she allegedly blamed her grandma for her death.
Last Wednesday, while she was at the boyfriend’s house, Saka started foaming in the mouth and she was taken to Igando General Hospital where she died.
The boyfriend who saw the suicide note reported the incident to the police at the Igando division, which led to the arrest of the woman.
A source said when the victim became pregnant, her grandma insisted she packed out of the house.
“The woman insisted that she packed to her boyfriend’s house. She threw out her luggage and chased her away,” he said.
Another source said, “The girl and the boyfriend loved each other. The man did not even reject the pregnancy.”
When Punch correspondent approached Saka’s relatives at their house on Mofoluwasho Close, they declined comment.
A fair-complexioned woman, who donned a berret, said, “Nothing evil happened to us here. Please leave now. We don’t want to say anything. You can write whatever you have heard. We have nothing to say.”
The Police Public Relations Officer, SP Dolapo Badmos, confirmed Saka’s death. She said, “The victim allegedly drank a substance suspected to be Sniper insecticide.
