A 25-year-old Nigerian man, Abdullahi Maidawa from Mamawa village, Bagudo local government area, Kebbi State, committed suicide Saturday by dousing himself in petrol and setting himself ablaze. His action according to police was his failure in memorizing The Koran (Qur'an). He had tried fruitlessly for eight years with impeccable devotion to memorize the Holy book which led to his terminal decision, police said. Kebbi police command responded to reports of a burning man, during which they found Maidawa with almost 100 percent burn. All efforts to save him after he was rescued by police and taken to a health clinic by his village failed. He gave up the ghost hours after arrival at the clinic, but not before he told police detectives that the second reason for his action was because he was an orphan. Alhaji Muktari Ibrahim, Kebbi State Police Commissioner confirmed the incident Sunday in an interview with News Agency of Nigeria (NAN).
