A 26-year-old man identified as Oscar Evance has taken his life by hanging himself with a rope in one of the storerooms at their workplace due to pressure of his underperformance at work.

The incident occurred in the afternoon of November 18, 2020 at Chiunda World Vision operation site for indoor residue spraying project.
