A staff of the University of Benin (UNIBEN), identified as Carter Oshodin has committed suicide in Edo State over alleged hardship.
It was learnt that the deceased was working as a data entry staff in the institution but became financially constrained following the strike action by the academic and non-academic unions in Universities, DailyPost reports.
Recall that the Federal Government had vowed that it would not pay the striking university workers, insisting on its no work no pay policy.
It was learned that the deceased had lamented his inability to offset some bills including his daughter’s school fees.
