Residents of Teso South in Teso County were left in shock
after a teacher committed suicide after impregnating a school girl.
A teacher at Apokor Secondary school committed suicide after
words went round that he had impregnated a student.
According to the note left behind the teacher opted to
commit suicide in order “to get peace and stop embarrassing his
mother".
Teso South OCPD Paul Odede confirmed that the said teacher Evans
Osia committed suicide after word went round that he had impregnated a
schoolgirl.
He feared that the girl's parents would push for his arrest.
In a suicide note found in his house, Osia narrated how his
mother Margaret struggled to pay his university fee, but he had instead
embarrassed her with his conduct.
Before killing himself, Osia, 28, is said to have shared his
ATM and M-Pesa pins with his aunt, whom he instructed to give the money to his
mother.
The body was taken to Alupe mortuary.
