Residents of Ablekuma Fan Milk in the Ga South District of the Greatest Accra Region woke up yesterday to the shocking news of yet another man who allegedly committed suicide, barely 24 hours after media reports said a Urologist at the 37 Military Hospital had died in similar circumstances at East Legon.Francis Kwadja, a 38-year-old Sunday School teacher at the Anyaa branch of the Apostolic Church, Ghana, was found hanging by the neck to the drying line on the compound of his two-bedroom partly completed and occupied house at Fan Milk Junction.However, he did not leave any note, unlike Dr Hayford De-Graft Yankah of 37 Hospital who allegedly cited the failure to reconcile with his wife as the reason he had to end it all.Scores of flies hovered around him as he sat on the ground, his lifeless body inclined against a wooden prop of the drying line with hundreds of by-standers catching a glimpse of the unusual spectacle.According to his 38-year-old wife, Comfort Nyarko, who could not be comforted, Francis, a native of Nzema Sanzo, was in the habit of threatening her and their three children that he would commit suicide. “He made similar threats three years ago and I also threatened to divorce him if he did not put a stop to that. It took the intervention of the Women's Fellowship Leader of our church for us to live together once again amicably."About eight months ago, he went to drink after a misunderstanding between us. Afterwards, he threatened to lie on the road and get run over by a vehicle."Following that incident, I went to live with my uncle at Kasoa until he came to plead with my uncle that he would not repeat what he did," Comfort explained her late husband's behaviour amidst sobs while two of their three children, Richard, 6, and Belinda, 4, sat on her lap and wept.Even though Francis had made similar threats in the past, his death in the early hours of yesterday was a big surprise to the wife, who sells fruits at night. "This time around" she said, "there was no misunderstanding between us."Comfort, who usually returns home late in the night after selling her wares at N.I.C, about a kilometre away from their home, came to meet her husband resting on their bedroom sofa at about 11.00pm. ."I greeted him and went to take my bath and slept since I was already too tired."Early this morning when my first daughter (she has a different father) woke up and was about to start her daily chores before going to school, she rushed back to the room to inform me that my husband was sitting on the ground. When I rushed outside, I realized that he had committed suicide."After Comfort shouted, the neighbours came out to behold the gruesome spectacle.When Daily Guide got to the scene at 6:57 am, some neighbours had taken the widow and her fatherless children to a nearby house where several people stood by the corpse, which was lying about 70 metres away.All who spoke to Daily Guide described Francis, who taught at a Santa Maria school, as a very calm and unassuming gentleman who always greeted his neighbours on his way to church or school.Janet, a fellow church member said: "He greeted me just last Sunday at church when we were in the queue to take our communion preceding this year's prayer-and-fasting session, which began this week."As at 8.00am when Daily Guide was leaving the place, the police had still not come to convey the body, which still had a battalion of flies and other insects swarming all over it, to the morgue.Source: Daily Guide
