A young Nigerian simply identified as Adegbite has reportedly committed suicide after he lost N150,000 to sports betting around Pegi, Kuje Area Council in Abuja. Adegbite was said to have placed a bet with the money which his boss gave him to pay his colleagues, hoping to replace it after winning. A colleague who spoke to Punch, said Adegbite took his own life after he lost the company's money to sports betting. “We were surprised when it happened. He was given the money to pay some people at his place of work. The money was in the region of N150,000. He took the money to a sport betting shop and staked it. He selected some matches but he did not win. He had hoped he would win and pay back the money. “The following morning, he was not seen by his neighbours. They noticed that he was inside; they broke the door open and found his body dangling on the ceiling fan. They alerted the police, who removed his body”, the colleague said.
