OMG! Woman Suffering from ‘Economic Depression’ is Found Dead Inside a Well in Ilorin

​In what will come across as a rather shocking development, a woman has been found dead inside a well.

A middle-aged woman, identified only as Medina, was found dead inside a well in the Oloje area of Ilorin, Kwara State capital, causing some pandemonium in the area.

She was reportedly found dead yesterday.

Vanguard reports that men of the state’s fire services had a hectic time recovering her lifeless body from the well after sympathisers and neighbours tried for hours without success.

It was gathered that the woman was last seen Monday evening by neighbours and did not return home to sleep. It was further gathered that a search party, Tuesday, combed every possible places she could have gone to, without finding her.

According to Vanguard, sources revealed that the party resumed the search early yesterday, only for a boy to discover the lifeless woman inside the well when he was about to fetch water. Her lifeless body was recovered later in the afternoon, following the arrival of men of the state fire services.

No reason was established for her action, but sources close to the family told Vanguard that the deceased had for some times exhibited traits of someone suffering from “economic depression” going by some debts she was owing without hope of paying back even as the debtors were said to be after her.

Another source said: “It was as a result of the traits exhibited by the deceased that she was brought to her family compound so that she can be catered for, but the worst happened.”

She has been buried according to Islamic rites. Contacted, the state’s Police Public Relations Officer, Ajayi Okasanmi, said he had not heard about the incident, but promised to confirm.

However, a source at police headquarters, who craved anonymity, confirmed the incident to Vanguard.
