Family in search of troubled single mum who walked out of her home with her last son leaving behind a 7-page suicidal notes

The lady pictured above is named Olubunmi Uko, a single mother of three boys who walked out of her Fola- Agoro, Lagos home last Friday at about 5am with her last son, Seun. According to her family members, on the day she went missing, she told her two older sons, Toni and Iyiola that she was going to see someone. When the older children woke up, they found the 7-page suicidal note she wrote to her children, mum and to whom it may concern.

She stated that she was tired of life and that she was going to jump into the sea and that no one should look for her because by the time they find the letter, she knows that a shark would have eaten her up.

One of her sons said she was tired of life as her business was suffering due to the crashing dollar rates. Olubunmi sold Forever Living products. She collected N500,000 from a bank to fund her business and had not been able to pay back a situation that has caused her sleepless nights. Meanwhile the matter has been reported at the Alade Police station in Shomolu. 

Her cousin in-law on Facebook asked people to pray for the safe return of Olubunmi and her son.
