A man identified as Ibrahim Lawal has hanged himself in Daura, Katsina State.
Residents said the incident happened on Sunday.
According to PUNCH Metro, the middle-aged man was a worker at the Sandamu Local Government Area of the state, but residing in Daura.
A resident, who did not want to be identified, said he saw Lawal on Sunday driving his car towards a mechanic workshop.
“I asked whether he was in the neighbourhood to repair his car, but he said no. He did not say anything afterwards; he just walked away,” he added.
