Ashaiman: Man tries to commit suicide over his inability to pay for his kidney treatment

Joshua
Agamah
popularly
known
as
Yehowa
Nyagbe
a
resident
of
Ashaiman
Lebanon
attempted
to
commit
suicide
over
his
inability
to
pay
for
his
kidney
treatment.

According
to
eyewitnesses,
the
middle-aged
man
climbed
an
ECG
Pylon
in
the
early
hours
of
yesterday
in
an
attempt
to
end
it
all.
There
were
pleas
by
people
to
stop
him
from
climbing
but
all
fell
on
deaf
ears.

It
continued
that
after
an
hour
of
collaborative
efforts
by
the
ECG,
Police
and
Fire
Service,
they
managed
to
bring
him
down
from
the
high-tension
pole.

When
he
was
questioned
as
to
why
he
decided
to
commit
suicide,
he
said
he
had
a
kidney
issue
and
needed
money
to
perform
dialysis
but
he
hasn’t
been
able
to
raise
funds
for
the
treatment.

His
family
and
friends
on
the
other
hand
had
neglected
him
to
his
fate
and
because
of
that,
he
wanted
to
end
everything.
