It was reported that a Nigerian woman named May Brown (19) attempted to kill herself in the United Kingdom because she does not want to go back to Nigeria.
The officials of the UK Border Agency believe that her marriage to a white man is not real so they wanted to deport her.
May (as she is called) believe that if she gets deported, she will be killed in her home country. This is the reason why she has decided to take her own life.
Her suicide note reads:
“‘I am deeply sorry that I had to go this way, without even saying goodbye. The UK immigration has finally driven me insane. They’ve pushed me too far this time and I can’t take the pain any more.
I don’t want a life or a future you won’t be part of. I love you so much, more than life itself and can’t endure the agony of not being with you.
Please forgive me for ending it this way. It’s better to die with my dignity than be subjected to torture and undignified death back in Nigeria.
If they send me back to Nigeria they are signing my death warrant, they will cut my life short because I will be killed.
I have found peace with Michael, he gave me a reason to live. I have got a family here and we don’t claim any benefits.
Michael works and I am studying to become a barrister, we have not harmed anybody.” May attempted suicide through medication overdose and she’s in coma at the moment.
She is a student of Weymouth College taking up public affairs. It was gathered that she moved to the UK 3 years ago.
She met her husband, Michael Brown, last year and they got married in December 2012.
She has already applied asylum in the United Kingdom, but her request was denied. According to our source (UK Daily Mail):
“Mr Brown, 34, said UK Border Agency officials believe their marriage to be a ‘sham’ with no ‘emotional attachment’.”
