I do not know if he had some faith or not, but I sincerely hope he is in a pleasant place now or at least in a place without pain and suffering, sleeping until he can be back to face our creator.

Good catch. One who commits suicide enters a world where there is no sorrow, no misery, no human traffic, no war, no idols, no need for food. We all have to enter that world sooner or later. So there is no need to be sad. Like you, we will return to God one day.

Do not misunderstand me, I indeed think there is a reason to be sad, because in the end his life ended prematurely and he has left people behind who are suffering a horrible sorrow because of this.

Does it mean we all have experienced death, everyone is scared of it lol. No one knows what is on the other side, but nothing is interesting about imposing pains on ourselves and people around us. Like you said, his parents are half finished, no joy, no happiness and no laughter ever in their life. Such a thing is difficult to evacuate from the brain. Moreover, he is not the first student to risk his school fees on gambling, many students did this during my school days, how they managed to pay up after losing all in gambling, I don't know. The best alternative is to drop out from school, instead of ending his precious life.

Even if he dropped out school, still had the chance to come back after working or saving up more money, or even asking his family for help admitting he had problems.

Also, I had not idea it was so common for students to gamble with money they actually need to pay for their education, from reading this news I would have expected it to be rather a rarity than a widespread problem, specially in countries like USA or Europe, where people needs to ask for credit in order to attend college.

I know this is not about a young man in neither of those places, but still, it does not make sense...perhaps it was even money it was given to him, instead something he earned by himself.
This is indeed true or on point!

How these students able to accumulate such fund for them to play? Whats up into their minds on taking up some loan or borrowing money as if they are already making some income or having those sources for them to pay back? If they had been entrusted up by some fund and they are really that engage to gambling then for sure it would be high likely that it would be used up on there. Gambling addiction doesnt really mind whether you are young or old because once addiction hits then for sure you would really be having that huge problem on how you would really be handing up yourself on such situation or condition.

This is why that if you do decide on engaging with gambling then you should really be that responsible when it comes to spending up money or simply with your finances specially if you are still a student then it would be that just right that you should really be lessening out such engagement since we know that money is really that hard to sustain when we are still that dependent from our parents. Spending up that much would
really lead into disaster because you would really be finding for money for you to play. Better to avoid this while its still early rather than on playing more.

it is the duty of parents, teachers, and also the community to continue to monitor the small changes that occur in children, moreover, their mentality is still not stable. usually, suicide is done by people who want attention and are confused about the best way for them to solve the problems they are facing right now.

Yeah, we all know that it is the responsibility of parents, teachers, and community members to control their children in everything they do that is improper, but when we talk about addiction, it means that it is difficult to stop, and you can see that our parents can't follow us everywhere we go because they realize that we are already adults who know what is right and wrong. It is sad that these young men committed suicide, but I think they also knew what they were doing was wrong.
Therefore, all we need to do is avoid terrible buddies in every situation we find ourselves in because the majority of males today are engaging in negative behavior as a result of the changing environment.
 
for the parents out there, keep an eye on your children, keep an eye on their association from gambling and free sex under age, and don't just be busy working, because children are a responsibility that God has given us.

The two things you stated are crucial for parents to watch out for in their kids, but I'll also advise them to avoid them whenever they see their kids with someone they don't want to see them with. Instead, they should discipline them and warn them to stay away from gambling and early sex.

Goodnight, ohh Leo!!! 🦅
It saddens me when I realize the level of damage our so-called renaissance has caused us... Alot of this has been happening behind closed doors, without being taken to over the air - it has lead mayn youths into getting depressed in Thier early ages in life, which isn't right at all.
Alright.... I'm not saying it's wrong that we've followed due-course to getting an enhanced mobility in technology, but maybe a few more desperate people have choosed to take these things too personal. GAMBLING REMAINS GAMBLING and nothing will change that... No matter how enticing Thier offers may look like, it cannot change the fact that you'll have to lose if you bet on wrong games - so you better hold-up your guts on wagering 'em games regularly cus that would only end you up in getting addicted. I'll still say he went too far by chosing homicide as an option - ain't nobody knows how but HEAR ME - LOSING ON GAMES DON'T KILL, ADDICTION DOES
ADDICTION KILLS, LET'S BE CAREFUL OUT THERE.

Depression caused by gambling addiction and not having someone to turn to can cause suicide and this is what actually happens to the guy in the story he has a weak personality and he is secretive and an introvert.
Gambling addiction, depression, and having a weak character will contribute to suicide if only he can open up and there's someone he could talk to, this could have been prevented, so if you know someone who has a gambling addiction, do check his character if he can move on from big losses.

Some people are weak vessels by nature and it is not everyone that is introverted, the guy in question was frustrated with another aspect of life to have his life taken the hard way, I don't think gambling was the only reason why he took his own life. The gambler in question is a student that attends one of the polytechnic schools in Nigeria, that is a public school whose seasonal school fee will not exceed $150 at the state and federal level, so if he must gamble his money and that of his friend, that shouldn't exceed $300 at most; Now tell me, which sensible adult will take his life for that amount except maybe there is additional information the media is not giving the public, gambling addiction, and suicidal thought often result from excess losses but this story is not clear.

This is sad news to know that this happened to students. It's supposed to be for other things but the sad truth is that "hope" that they can make more money by having to bet and gamble. That false hope is deadly and it literally went to death. Better be careful.
This is how addiction destroys gamblers that let themselves to be carried away by their emotions and they will start to chase their lost hoping to recover it.

I don't know why the boy allowed himself to be carried away by his weakness of not being able to control himself and live to face the consequences of his action. I feel pity for his parent. This is a lesson to people who don't have self control on their gambling activities.
If the boy didn't become addicted to gambling, he could still enjoy his school days and grow up. But everything has happened and can not come back again. At least this is a lesson for all students and parents to pay more attention to the development of their children.

The emotions of young people are still unstable and they cannot make good decisions. And when they take the wrong path, they can experience things they don't want. And this is one example that should be avoided. Gambling addiction, however, will only have a worse impact. Young people should take into positive things that can benefit their lives.

He was a very young to go into depression! The decision of self-destruction, no matter what you say may be the reason will destroy everything near & dear. A young human, who had so much to see and explore would never take such a decision. It was his surrounding that might have been the reason for him to gamble. It is his surrounding that emotionally made him realize that his life is worthless. Children in 2023 are unable to bear any kind of pressure. They are so much the opposite that we were in early of 2000. We wanted to enjoy, we wanted everything in this world. We never took the easy way! We worked hard and whatever we earned we used it for enjoyment while studying.
Actually that's why majority of people who commit suicide are young people because if they're mature, they wouldn't commit suicide due to good mental and know life is more important than money. Gen Z (born 1997-2012) and Alpha generation (born 2013-2025) are pampered people, they always exaggerating anything happen in their life and they tend to self diagnose if they're depressed, this because their generation are pampered.

The looming specter of repayment failure, the relentless gnaw of guilt, the ceaseless undercurrent of stress - it can shatter even the most resilient among us. It's not our place to cast stones at his decisions. Instead, let's strive to radiate empathy and support. You never know who might be sailing in the same boat.

In his case he have the opportunity to make his decision but I want to believe he chose to die because those that he owe should have been the ones to be after his life when he will be unable to pay them back, if he had not killed himself, they may consider him andbpity him then sign an undertaking to repay badk his friend money, he would have engage in working or doing other business that can fetch him money to use to repay back, they would have seeve him enough lesson for taking such decision than killing himself, maybe everyone of us have once been in debt before either with big money involved or small money.
The chips are usually sky-high when it comes to the gambling scene, but when the specter of mental health enters the arena, it's an entirely different league we're talking about. It ain't just about who's got the robust or brittle persona, it's about the interior wars waged on the battlefield of one's mind.

A nugget of reality - Our internal circuitry is as unique as our fingerprints. This lad, perhaps he leaned towards the quieter, more concealed side of the spectrum, but that's no measure of his fortitude. He was embattled, in dire need of an ally. But breaking down the barriers isn't a cakewalk, particularly when you're swallowed up by an ocean of remorse and self-reproach.

However, there's one element I'd like to diverge on. Slipping into the mire of debt isn't solely about the financial blow; it's about the freight train of emotional turmoil that trails behind. The looming specter of repayment failure, the relentless gnaw of guilt, the ceaseless undercurrent of stress - it can shatter even the most resilient among us. It's not our place to cast stones at his decisions. Instead, let's strive to radiate empathy and support. You never know who might be sailing in the same boat.

Too much of ignorance ended up in a very bad way I hope this is the final one to lose due to such kind of addiction. 22 year old is not that young so he should be the one who is responsible for all the things happened to him that is why we are adviced to be surrounded by one good friend over 100 bad friends.

I am not ready to read the entire story because it can cause mental break down on myself, I hope his soul will find peace and deep condolences to his family.

It's really a shame, this is really one of those sad stories that really tell the dark side of sports betting and gambling in general, I could not help it, but had tears rolling down my cheek while reading this story..

Another future father, a future millionaire maybe, young 22 year old boy with a promising future lost to suicide after losing his school fees, and that of his friend to sport betting due to gambling addiction..

We are in the 21st century, until when before people realize that suicide does not put an end to problem, but rather create more for those living??

This is really a sad story though, ya all can read it on https://punchng.com/how-ogun-student-committed-suicide-after-losing-school-fees-to-sports-betting/?utm_source=telegram&utm_medium=social

I hope we all as gamblers learn a thing or two from this, and go back and look at our gambling life and see if there is a thing or two that needs to be adjusted..
I pray non of us, and any of our relative shall ever be a victim of such a sad story 😢😢.

It's tough. But everyone's life is tough. Everything we do in life is a choice. Now with that story the best thing we could do is to learn from that. To not let the same thing happen t another person. At least. Because we all know that the very edge of the planet there's another person who might also get caught up of gambling addiction. But just remember. Cherish your lives man. It's just money. You can make it again. Don't let the money make your life. Let your life make those freakin money.

A lot of people use gambling as an escape from something else.... and if the gambling goes wrong, then they see no future. If you have debt, do not try to get out of the debt, by using gambling.... it is not profitable for most people.  Roll Eyes

Also, if you have depression ... rather go and seek help... do not dive deeper into a dark pit of despair by trying gambling to cheer you up. Losing a lot of money is not going to get you out of that situation.   
I've heard this a lot but I don't understand how gambling can be a cure for depression, I know that there are games that you can play which are multiplayer where you can make friends, chat with others while playing and do a lot of other things to cheer yourself up and this kind of games can help you get out of depression or a similar situation, but I don't see how spending money on gambling can be a solution at all.

And it's true that a lot of people try to use gambling as a way to pay their debts and what mostly happens when they fail is they keep taking loans from other places only to pay the previous loans when they are about to default and that gets them stuck in this even more.

Depression is one of the effect of gambling loses and we need to be strong enough to accept our loses because the later can be very disheartened. We need to gamble with what we know that we can afford to lose or else we might be forced to face the reality of the excess gambling we had made so far. One of the reasons why gamblers keep coming suicidal and doing unacceptable things is because of too much gambling activities and betting above what we could afford. If we don't take good care of our gambling activities and to reduce the affect, then we can suddenly see ourselves as an addict of gambling.

This is so sad, am always feeling pains whenever I see people committing suicide after losing money in gambling, people like this are the once that make most people in the society think gambling is real bad, I see no reason why you should gamble with the amount you know it will affect you if you lose, when gambling their is no assurance that you are going to win, you can’t be too confident about your bet, because anything can happen at any moment, so we should learn just to gamble with any amount we all can afford to lose, we should always have limited, we should try our possible best not to exceed our limit.

I dont think that loosing school fees was the real reason to commit a suicide. It was last drop before he made that decision. I believe that people dont commit suicide so instantly, it is a decision they  came to with time. It said that he has bough insecticide. I think he has planned that suicide. As you can just all of a sudden decide so quickly how to kill yourself, as he had to be sure that it will work, but not just cause damage and paid.
Do you know how he struggled before he could get the school fees, maybe he was just trying to double the school fees or maybe he was just trying to make some little amount which he will use for other things he need from the school fees. Maybe after losing the shock was too much for him and the only thing that came to his mind was to commit suicide, he didn’t know that no matter what you are going through, suicide is not always an option, their is better days ahead.

Just because I personally believe that we all will return to God does not mean we are supposed to ignore or downplay this kind of mental issues in our society and in those around us, specially when gambling is an important factor for the anxiety and depression, when money is involved it only makes things worse.

We should not see gambling addicts as shameless people who enjoy to lose money they need, but rather as people who need medical attention and spiritual treatment.
