Nick Imudia, a former Chief Executive Officer of Konga, one of Nigeria’s e-commerce giants, has reportedly died by suicide.
Imudia, at the time of his death, was the CEO of D.light, a leading innovator in the distribution and financing of residential solar energy solutions and transformational household products.
He was said to have committed suicide by jumping from the balcony of his apartment in the Lekki area of Lagos State on the evening of Tuesday, June 25, 2024.
Before his death, the businessman reportedly made a call to his United States-based brother to give him instructions on how to distribute his wealth; and had also called his young daughter to inform her that he would always be there for her.
According to a post on an online platform, TheWill, friends, family and associates of Imudia are still in shock as to why he would commit suicide.
An indigene of Ika South Local Government Area of Delta State, Imudia was previously married to the mother of his young daughter, but the marriage reportedly ended due to irreconcilable differences.
The state Police Public Relations Officer, Benjamin Hundeyin, confirmed the report on Thursday [today].
“Yes, it is true. He committed the act on June 25,” Hundeyin said.
