A 30-year-old woman identified as Abigail Adebayo has allegedly killed herself after her fiancee’s family disapproved of their marriage in the Ijebu Ode area of Ogun State.

The decreased had been in a relationship with one Oniga Abiola since September 2025, with plans to marry.

It was learnt that Abiola had taken her home to see his mother about two weeks ago. But his family rejected the marriage after discovering that Abigail had three children from a previous relationship.

She was later found motionless in her room after allegedly taking sniper insecticide.

Abiola was said to have reported the incident to the Atan Ijebu Division of the Ogun State Police Command.

The Police Public Relations Officer, Oluseyi Babaseyi, confirmed the incident on Tuesday, saying Abigail was rushed to the General Hospital in Ijebu-Ode, where doctors confirmed her dead on arrival.

Babaseyi stated that detectives immediately visited the scene and the hospital, where photographs were taken but no visible marks of violence were found on the body.

The police spokesperson assured that investigation was ongoing to unravel all incidents surrounding Abigail’s death.

The police spokesperson said, “On 12/02/2026 Thursday, it was reported that one Abigail Adebayo ‘F’, 30 years, allegedly ingested Sniper insecticide following a family disagreement over their intended marriage.

“She was immediately rushed to General Hospital, Ijebu Ode, where she was confirmed dead by the doctor on duty.
