A student in the Department of English at OAU in Ile- Ife , Opeyemi Grace Dara, whose set finished their final year exams just last semester has committed suicide through the consumption of the notorious snipper on Friday.
Public Relations Officer (PRO) of OAU Olanrewaju said , “we sympathise with the parents and guardian of the deceased called Dara . We just want our students and young ones to know that depression is not a thing they should encourage , no matter the situation or circumstance they find themselves .
“ Some people in the past have passed through the same situation and circumstances and came out clean . Now , suicide can never be an option and people , especially the young ones who believe that taking their own lives is an act of gallantry should know that it is not good.”
“We want to appeal to students , particularly OAU students , to take things easy . Any child that fails, that is why the university says you can rerun a course, you can resit a course. People out there also face challenges and when you are in school , failure or repetition of a course or particular subject is also part of the challenges students must face.
