Residents of Itapaji, a sprawling community in Ikole Local Government Area of Ekiti State woke up this morning to a gory realisation of a man who committed suicide few hours after the announcement of the Saturday election in favour of the All Progressives Congress, APC.

The man, simply identified as”Baba Richard” is a settler in the community where he lived with his wife and children.

Nigerian Current investigation revealed that Baba Richard, a Basa  man from Kogi State woke up and told his wife he was going to defecate in a nearby bushSuspicion set in too late as the wife who realised he was taking him too long to return decided to look for himThe search did not take too long to yield result as the lifeless body of the man was found dangling on a tree almost behind their residence.

A section of dwellers in the community, it was gathered, have sworn to ensure the victory of a particular political party in the concluded election.

Nigerian Current gathered that the President of the settlers went a step further by forcing the immigrants to swear to an oath to ensure none of them go against the collective resolve.

As at the time of filing this report, the entire community is in deep mourning of the deceased whom many referred to as easy going, quiet, easy going family man
