The discovery was made yesterday morning, Friday 2 August 2024, in Sitakourou, an outlying area of the Kankan urban commune. The story concerns a young stonemason apprentice, Sékou Kourouma, who committed suicide by hanging. It is known that the victim’s Android phone was stolen last Wednesday. Unable to digest the theft, he ended up committing suicide despite the advice of those around him, reports a Guineematin.com correspondent in the prefecture.
This is surprising news. Sékou Kourouma, a 16-year-old stonemason apprentice, hanged himself after his mobile phone was stolen. However, his master and uncle tried everything to make the deceased forget about it, but in vain. Sékou Camara even promised the young man to buy him a mobile phone.
“The young man who died was my sister’s son, from the same father and mother. His name is Sekou Kuruma. Last Wednesday, someone set a trap for him and offered him a job because he was a mason. According to his explanation, he followed the young man to show him the work to be done and arrived at a place where the man told him that he wanted to make a call but his mobile phone was dead. Sekou gave him the mobile phone so that he could make a call. But the man disappeared with the mobile phone. When he informed me, I told him to forget it and that I would buy him another one in the next few days because I had a new contract. But since then he has been strange, every time he would take time to go to the place where the mobile phone was stolen to see if he could bump into the man, and he would not return home early at night. Yesterday, he did the same thing again, he did not come early like before. So I told another apprentice, Moussa, not to close the door and when Sekou came back, he would close the door. But I did not see him until dawn. That’s why, in the morning, instead of going to the mosque, I took a taxi to the construction site. When I arrived, I saw him washing clothes and other things outside because he was bringing things in. So I walked into the building and I saw he had a rope around his neck,” he said.
After receiving the notification from the district government, the head of the Kankan Special Mission rushed to the scene. In his speech, Arafamissa Coulibaly asked young people to overcome disappointment.
“What is gone is gone, what remains is faith in God. According to his uncle’s explanation, this happened after the phone was stolen. We ask other young people to have faith in God and believe in their destiny. Because this is the result of disappointment, it is an obstacle that he can overcome. All those who find themselves in similar situations, I ask them to take their destiny into their own hands and overcome obstacles to achieve their goals,” the Chairman of the Special Mission advised.
The body of Sékou Kourouma is currently at the morgue of the Kankan Regional Hospital for an autopsy before being handed over to his parents
