Money is replaceable but life is irreplaceable.

A frustrated woman who almost commit suicide, has been rescued by her husband. According to the husband simply identified as Kenny, he gave her money to save for their house rent. On the day he was supposed to pay, he asked her for the money, and she told him she had spent it all on food.

The man got angry and left he house but when he got back, he met her hanging to the fan.

Narrating the Ordeal, Mr Kenny said:

“My house rent expired last month, so I told my landlord to give me till the end of December to put myself in order because I was thinking of travelling with my family.

Before then, I gave my wife 75% of the house rent to keep pending when I will complete it. I just received a call from my office today that salaries are being paid today, besides I am on night duty so it will be till evening before I will receive mine.

I asked my wife to get the money ready that I am going to compete it today to enable me pay the house rent tomorrow against the deadline which is on 24th of this month, only for her to tell me that she has spent the money on our feeding.

I got angry and yelled at her and called her close friend to ask her where she kept the money. There’s no day I don’t provide for the family, so how come she spent the money on the family? .

So after all said and done. I got angry and went out with my 1-year-old daughter to cool by temper with a bottle of Hero. Then entering the house I saw her hanged herself. So I rushed and echoed for help.

This is unfortunate on different levels. We should learn to take responsibility for our errors and not take drastic decisions in times we fail. Everyone makes mistakes, it’s just how we handle them and learn from them that matters.

Attempted suicide is a crime in the Nigerian Law and she would be lucky if she escapes being charged to court for this. We hope she isn’t charged but she needs to be counseled.
