A 400-level student of the Kwara State University (KWASU) has committed suicide over her poor grades.
Daily Trust reports that the incident, involving one Rashidat Shittu, happened over the weekend.
The 20-year-old student of Accounting was said to have taken a chemical substance that later claimed her life.
Sources familiar with the matter said she committed suicide ahead of her upcoming exam because she was having grade-related issues.
“When she started feeling pains, she informed her friends and hostel mates that she used the poisonous substance,” one student was quoted as saying.
It is understood that Shittu was rushed to the school clinic and later referred to the University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital (UITH).
The final-year student was, however, pronounced dead on arrival…
