“I have tried to bear the pain, but it has become too much for me. I have to end it all, I am tired, my spirit is already broken” – 30-year-old man takes his life after 7 years of unpaid labor by his boss

A 30-year-old Nigerian man has tragically broken the internet after committing suicide, leaving behind a poignant note following his boss‘s refusal to settle him after 7 years of service.

This heartbreaking news was shared in a post on X (formerly Twitter) by a social media user.

The man, identified as Ani Chisom, reportedly took his life due to the lack of compensation from his employer, Ulasi of Otolo Cars in Lagos.

His suicide note reveals his emotional struggles leading up to this tragic decision and includes heartfelt messages to his mother, siblings, his boss, and the woman he loved.

In his letter, Ani expressed: “I have tried my best to be somebody in life, but life has not been fair to me. I served with hard labor, yet nothing came of it because my master refused to settle me. It has been emotionally exhausting.”

He continued, “I have tried to bear the pain, but it has become too much for me. I have to end it all because I am very tired, and my spirit is already broken.”

To his mother, he wrote, “I know this will hurt her deeply because I am her favorite, and she has cared for me so much. I’m so sorry, Mom, that I couldn’t make it. Life hasn’t worked out for me.”

Addressing his boss, Ulasi, he stated, “We will meet again soon, but before that, you will hear from me. You made me endure so much after seven years of hard work with you. I should be a businessman now, not frustrated by your actions.”

He also expressed love for his siblings, saying, “Chioma, Ruth, Ekene, Uche, I love you so much. I promise to pave the way for you all in whatever I can do. Goodbye until we meet again.”

Finally, he acknowledged the woman he was leaving behind, saying, “You are such a wonderful person, and may God bless you abundantly for all you have done.”

Ani’s tragic death and the emotional weight of his note have drawn significant attention on social media, with many users sharing their thoughts in response to this heartbreaking incident.
