A middle aged man popularly known as papa Ebube residing in Arrietalline area of Yenagoa Bayelsa state took his own life by hanging in the early hours on Sunday.
According to residents in the area, papa Ebube may have committed suicide because he lost his bet9ja ticket that could have earned him three hundred and sixty million naira.
Documents found in his possession when the police arrived revealed that the deceased was a graduate, tricycle rider and great lover of sports whose son is expected to graduate from the Nigerian military school this year.
Papa Ebube was a jolly good fellow in the neighborhood, had two wives and two children living with him but left when they constantly suffered domestic violence under his watch.
