Police save a Man who was poisoned over a ₦1.2 million debt
After informing Delta State Police Command that he had just consumed poison and was ready to die, officers arrived to save him.
Chicken vendor Alozie John nearly died after swallowing a toxic chemical related to a ₦1.2 million debt.
According to reports, the debt was owed to a livestock supplier in Anambra State’s Dunukofia Local Government Area, Umunnachi.
A police spokesperson, Tochukwu Ikenga, stated that the incident happened on Friday, August 23, 2024.
Because of his financial difficulties, John, a 27-year-old resident of Umunnachi from Isielu LGA in Ebonyi State, had taken the poisonous chemical in a desperate attempt to end his life.
Through WhatsApp, he had communicated his plan and the hefty debt of 1.2million was getting to him.
After getting the distress call, the cops arrived quickly, saving John and offering emergency medical attention.
After that, he was in safe custody to get additional monitoring and assistance.

The young man, later identified as Alozie John “m,” a 27-year-old resident of Umunnachi, Dunukofia LGA, Ebonyi State, drank a poisonous substance in hopes of dying because he owed his livestock product supplier one million two hundred thousand Naira.
