Nick Imudia, the former Chief Executive Officer of Nigerian e-commerce giant Konga, tragically took his own life on Tuesday, June 25. Imudia, who was serving as the CEO of D.light, a leading residential solar energy solutions company, reportedly ended his life in his Lekki, Lagos apartment.
Sources indicate that Imudia jumped from the balcony of his apartment late Tuesday night. Prior to the incident, he contacted his brother in the United States, giving instructions on how to distribute his assets in the event of his death. He also reached out to his young daughter from a previous relationship, assuring her that he would always be with her and that she could find him by looking at the sky.
The news has left his friends, family, and colleagues in shock, struggling to understand the reasons behind his decision. Imudia, originally from Ika South Local Government Area of Delta State, had previously been married to the mother of his daughter, who also hails from the same local government. The marriage ended due to irreconcilable differences.
