A staff of the University of Benin (UNIBEN), Prince Carter Oshodin, committed suicide on Friday due to his dire financial situation.
Oshodin worked as a data entry personnel at the university and had not been paid for months following the ongoing ASUU strike.
It was gathered that the Non-Academic Staff Union which the deceased belonged to has called off its strike recently, but the members had yet to be paid their salaries.
Oshodin’s Facebook confirmed his job description at UNIBEN.
As of the time of filing this report, there is no official statement from the University.
