The death of popular Lagos DJ, Seun Omogaji, aka Xgee  via suicide a day after New Year has set social media with many calling for regular mental examination of Nigerians. Some advised that Nigerians should pay close attention to the people around them.

A graduate of the University of Lagos and Methodist Boys High School, Lagos, he was said to have taken his life after his wife packed out of their home. His plea to his estranged wife to return home reportedly fell on deaf ears. He subsequently drank Sniper, deadly insecticide, and died.

His death has provoked outrage on social media.

Ms Mercy Makinde wrote on her Facebook wall

“This fresh young man left this world this morning after leaving the suicide note below on his page.

Report has it that he took his own life by drinking sniper insecticide this morning because he was battling Marital Crisis!

Let’s pay attention to the people around us and even their social media post. After dropping this note below some people came on and commented without reading caption like I sometimes do personally. Now I’m wondering , if someone had read and picked up the message immediately , could he have been saved??? I honestly don’t know!

How would his Mother and Wife feel right now? Only God can console them.

Please if you feel hopeless and helpless right now especially with all the buzz about new year and you feel yours is just too bleak and that leaves you feeling weary please reach out and talk to someone right now…seek help immediately ! Suicide is never an option!

The late Seun left a note on Instagram which may help detectives in unravelling the real motive of his death.

According to reports DJ Xgee had been having serious issues with his wife and had been pleading with her to take things easy.

However, she later packed out of their matrimonial home. Again, he begged her to return, but she refused, then out of depression he decided to take his own life.
