A pastor of a Pentecostal church, in Anambra State, identified as Pastor Prosper Obum Igboke has committed suicide in Nnewi after a lover rejected his marriage proposal.
Sources who witnessed the sad incident said the man jumped down from a two-storey building after the lady whom he had trained at the university declined his marriage proposal.
A relative of the deceased who spoke with newsmen in anonymity said, “The man was 30 years old at the time of his death. His girlfriend, whom he intended to marry disappointed him after seeing her through the university.

The man was eventually buried, yesterday, Friday, in a bush, the source added.
