This heartbreaking account tells how Nick Imudia, former CEO of Konga, a prominent Nigerian e-commerce company, tragically ended his own life at his residence.
Nick, then CEO of D.light, a leading company in solar energy solutions, took his life by jumping from the balcony of his apartment in Lekki, Lagos, on the night of Tuesday, June 25.
Before his death, he reached out to his brother in the US to discuss the distribution of his assets in case of his passing.
He also spoke with his young daughter from a previous relationship, assuring her that he would always watch over her from the sky.
His sudden suicide has left his friends, family, and colleagues puzzled, as they seek to understand why he made this choice.
Originally from Ika South local government area in Delta State, Nick had been previously married to his daughter’s mother, also from the same area, but their marriage ended due to irreconcilable differences.
He later remarried a Caucasian woman, and many believed he had found happiness before this tragic event.
Before his tenure at Konga, Nick held positions at TCL/Alcatel as a regional director and at Microsoft Device and Services as GM/MD for West and Central Africa.
