“I left home for work that morning after taking my breakfast; she had asked that I buy a tuber of yam for dinner when I return.

When I returned, I saw people gathered around my apartment only to be told that my wife had killed herself.
We did not have any misunderstanding. Even though we had been married for eight years without a child, I did put pressure on her neither was I seriously disturbed. I don’t know why she killed herself.”
