Anambra Pastor commits suicide after lover rejected him despite massive investment

One Pastor Prosper Igboke, of a Pentecostal Church in Nnewi, Anambra State, has committed suicide after a lover whom he’d heavily invested in, rejected him,

Dockaysworld gathered that Pastor Prosper jumped down from a two-storey building in Nnewi.

According to witnesses, Igboke jumped down from the building and died instantly.

A relative of the deceased said the 30-year-old man from Leru community in Umunneochi Local Government Area, Abia State, had trained his lover in the University, after which she declined his marriage proposal.

“The incident happened last month. The man (Igboke) was 30 years old at the time of his dfath.

His girlfriend, whom he intended to marry disappointed him after seeing her through the university.

He jumped down from a two-storey building and died. I am surprised that a man of this age and a pastor can do this.”

According to their village tradition, the relative said he was buried in a forest for committing “sacrilege”.

“He was eventually buried on Friday in a bush in his community;” the source added.
