A newly wedded couple have reportedly committed suicide over the huge financial debts they incurred while planning their wedding.

The duo were alleged to have swallowed an insecticide, popularly known as sniper.

WuzupNigeria reports that the Federal Government has banned the sale of Sniper.

Narrating the incident on Twitter, a lady, simply identified as Tola, said via her handle, @detolah_,

“A lady was indebted after wedding and killed herself after 3 days, the husband drank sniper too and he’s dead now.

However, after a Twitter user suggested that it might not be the wedding debt that pushed the couple to commit suicide, Tola further wrote:
“It is! The husband’s family said that’s what she kept saying”
