SS 2 boy hangs himself after quarrel with sister
An 11-year-old boy was found hanging in his family compound at the Federal Housing Estate, Kubwa, Abuja on the weekend.
Umar Yahaya, the father of the boy, said he and the boy’s mother were not at home when the boy hanged himself.
It was their neighbours who found the SS2 student dangling from an overhead tank.
“I travelled out of Abuja, while the boy’s mother was at the City Centre, where she went to condole with a relative.
“Our neighbours found him hanging around this overhead tank, and immediately rushed him to Kubwa General Hospital where he was pronounced dead by a doctor on duty,” Yahaya said
According to neighbours, the boy had a misunderstanding with his elder sister for beating their younger sibling while their parents were away.
“He may have been annoyed by that, and thereafter tied his neck with a rope used for hanging clothes inside the compound. He was found dangling, with the rope around his neck” one of the neighbours said
The matter has been reported to the police while his body has been evacuated from the scene of the incident.
