A Class Four pupil committed suicide in Kagwa sub-location in Rarieda. Yvonne Akinyi, 15, ended her life by hanging herself with a rope on a tree.

She was living with her grandma though her parents hail from Nyatike constituency in Migori County.

Area assistant chief Samuel Onyango said her body was discovered by her grandmother. According to Mr Onyango, Akinyi's grandmother woke up thinking she had gone to school only to see her hanging on a mango tree.

"Even though there was no suicidal note, we have established the girl was suffering from lack of parental love since her parents separated a year ago," said the administrator.

 Just recently, a night guard committed suicide in Nyabeda village, Rachar sub-locatuon.

The man, Sammy Ong'udi, 30, who works at Ruma Secondary School in Rarieda as a guard was found dangling on a rope in his house
