An 80-year-old man, Isiaka Ayinde, has committed suicide in the Araromi Imota area of Lagos State.

The body was found dangling from a rope tied in the kitchen.

The landlord reported the matter to the police.

The state Police Public Relations Officer, Benjamin Hundeyin, confirmed the incident.

He said, “The scene has been visited by the DCB personnel of the division, and photographs were taken.

“The family of the deceased is not interested in depositing the body at the mortuary but rather preferred burying the corpse immediately as a result of the age and religious inclination of the deceased.”
