The results of the 2012 Certificate examination of the West African Examination Council (WAEC) have claimed lives in Delta State. Two female students that failed their exams yesterday allegedly committed suicide in Asaba, the state capital.
Reports said the students committed suicide after checking their result in the internet and discovered that it was unfavourable to them.
Sources said the victims had written the exams three times without passing their Maths and English Language, which led them to allegedly resolve to commit suicide.
Few persons who spoke to SchoolGist on anonymity confirmed that the students had struggled to gain admission into the University in the last few years without success.
Police in the “B” Division Asaba had found the two students dead in their various rooms in Asaba during a search.
The question SchoolGist ask; is there any moral lesson in these girls actions? Why take life you can't give?
Stop Suicide!
