Former Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Konga, one of Nigeria’s e-commerce giants, Nick Imudia, has reportedly died by suicide.
He tragically took his own life by jumping from the balcony of his apartment in the Lekki area of Lagos State on the evening of Tuesday, June 25, 2024.
Prior to his death, Imudia allegedly contacted his brother based in the United States to provide instructions on how to manage his estate. He also spoke with his young daughter, assuring her of his enduring presence in her life.
According to a post on TheWill, an online platform, Imudia’s friends, family, and colleagues remain shocked and puzzled by the circumstances surrounding his suicide.
Originally from the Ika South Local Government Area of Delta State, Imudia had been previously married, but the relationship ended due to irreconcilable differences with his daughter’s mother.
The Police Public Relations Officer, Benjamin Hundeyin, confirmed the incident to journalists on Thursday.
“Yes, it is true. He committed the act on June 25,” Hundeyin said.
