A 28-year-old final year student of Rufus Giwa Polytechnic, Owo (RUGIPO), Precious Arobo, has reportedly taken his own life in Ondo
Arobo, a Higher National Diploma (HND) II student, was found dead in a bush near his residence by local residents. Sources said he allegedly left behind a suicide note before hanging himself, although the exact circumstances surrounding his death remain unclear.
According to sources, the suicide note hinted at emotional distress believed to be related to a troubled relationship.
It was gathered that his grieving parents have since buried him, with friends and colleagues describing him as a kind and well-loved individual.

“He has been buried, and the parents were heartbroken over his death,” a source told The Nation.
Confirming the incident, the Ondo State Police Public Relations Officer, SP Ayanlade Olayinka, said the command has commenced an investigation and assured that the true cause of the suicide will be uncovered.
This tragic case came less than a year after a similar incident involving a female student of Adekunle Ajasin University, Akungba Akoko (AAUA), Modupe Ayandare, who also reportedly died by suicide after a church vigil.
Like Arobo, she was said to have left a suicide note before taking her life in an uncompleted building near the church.
