The video has since circulated widely on social media.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">His remains were evacuated and deposited at the State Hospital morgue for preservation and further examination.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Police said no signs of foul play or visible injuries were observed on the body during the initial examination.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Commissioner of Police in the state, Felix Ohagwu, has ordered a thorough investigation into the circumstances surrounding the incident to determine the actual cause of death.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ohagwu urged members of the public to refrain from speculation and allow investigators to carry out their work.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He also advised individuals experiencing emotional distress, marital difficulties, or other personal challenges to seek timely support and assistance rather than resorting to actions that could endanger their lives.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Editing notes: I corrected grammar, punctuation, capitalization, and word choice; improved sentence flow; removed repetitive wording; and used a more responsible headline style that avoids sensationalizing suicide.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/vanguardngr.com\/\">Vanguard News<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vanguardngr.com\/2026\/10\/46-yr-old-businessman-commits-suicide-leaves-video-message-for-family\/\">46-yr-old businessman commits suicide, leaves video message for family<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vanguardngr.com\/\">Vanguard News<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Source: <\/p>\n<div class=\"nSourse\">Vanguard News<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Dayo Johnson, Akure A 46-year-old businessman, Akinbolusere Kayode, has reportedly died by suicide in Ondo Town, Ondo State.
