A 22-year-old hairstylist, Odama Mary Agado, has reportedly taken her own life in Enugu after discovering that her boyfriend was unfaithful. Mary, who hailed from Woleche-Ipuole, Yahe Ward in Yala Local Government Area of Cross River State, allegedly ingested a poisonous substance, believed to be sniper, following the emotional shock. She had been living and working in Enugu, where she was reportedly doing well in her hairstyling business. According to sources, Mary had even bought a car and rented an apartment for her boyfriend, highlighting the depth of her care and commitment. A family member, Daniel, said Mary visited her boyfriend last Friday and found him with another woman in the apartment she had secured for him. Heartbroken, she returned to her own apartment and called her mother, reportedly saying she could not continue living. Her mother, unable to return the call due to lack of airtime, later received word that Mary had ingested poison and was rushed to a nearby hospital. Despite doctors’ efforts, she was pronounced dead later that day. Mary’s body was taken back to her hometown in Yala, where she was buried immediately on Saturday. “We buried her right away. She was too young for a prolonged burial process. Some believe spiritual forces were involved, but nothing can bring her back now,” the family source said. The family decided not to involve the police, considering the death a suicide. The tragic event has left residents of Enugu and Yala in shock and has reignited discussions about mental health awareness and the importance of emotional support for young people.
