A 23-year-old young lady by name Sherifat Suleiman committed suicide over alleged abuse from her elder brother in Isawo community, Ikorodu, Lagos State. The incidence is said to have occured on Sunday July the 12th, 2020, when the news broke in Isawo community that Sherifat Suleiman killed herself after efforts to stop her elder brother from his incessant sexual molestation proved abortive in Ikorodu-West Local Council Development Area (LCDA).


Neighbours described the lady as gentle and easy going. It was gathered that Sherifat consumed a substance believed to be an insecticide (Snipper) on monday after she was allegedly beaten by her brother who had incessantly and sexually molested her.


It was also also gathered that Sherifat came to live with the brother after the death of their father because she was preparing for the West African Senior School Certificate Examination, WASSCE.


Sherifat was discovered while in serious pains by neighbours and was rushed to the hospital for treatment. The 23-year-old, who had visible marks of assaults on the right thigh, died a few minutes before she was rushed to the hospital.


The brother was nowhere around to make any statement regarding the incidence. May her soul rest in peace.
