She was seen arranging her table, getting ready for the day\u2019s sales, and looking happy. But she later left the mall around 11 am after receiving her suspension letter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAround 4 pm, a distress call was received in the office that she was not feeling okay. One of the management staff members went to check on her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cKehinde was found on the floor of her room shaking, while the smell of the poison she took could be perceived. But no empty can was seen anywhere, and she was rushed to the hospital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAfter some time at the hospital, she was declared dead. One of her relatives said she did not show any sign of depression.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cShe was suspended for coming late that day. She was told to go home. Then, she went back home. We all know that when you come late, you will be suspended for a few days without pay, so we wonder why she would take her life.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A 23-year-old female employee at the Shoprite Shopping Mall in Akure, Ondo State, Jumoke Kehinde, has allegedly committed suicide after she was suspended without pay for reporting late for work.
