The former Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Konga, Nick Imudia, has committed suicide at his residence in the Lekki area of Lagos State.

It was gathered that Imudia committed suicide by jumping from the balcony of his apartment in Lekki on Tuesday evening.

Though it could not be ascertained why the businessman committed suicide, it was learnt that the former Konga CEO, before his death, reportedly made a call to his United States-based brother to give him instructions on how to distribute his wealth.

He was also said to have called his young daughter to inform her that he would always be there for her.

Imudia’s death was confirmed by the Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, Benjamin Hundeyin, on Thursday, June 27, 2024.
