Investigators are looking into a case where a 27-year-old lady committed suicide in a Siaya community in Kenya after being unable to find employment.

On Tuesday, the body of Vera Okoth was discovered in the family's Umiru village home's toilet. Her mother found the body, according to the police.

The mother told authorities she had gone to wake up her daughter but discovered her missing in her room, according to Cleti Kimaiyo, the commander of Siaya County authorities.

When she went to the toilet, which is next to her room, she discovered that her body was hanging there and that a rope was around her neck.

The deceased had applied for almost 500 jobs without success, according to police preliminary investigations, and had asked her mother before she passed away if she would ever get a job.

In 2019, the deceased earned a bachelor's degree in science from Masinde Muliro University in Kenya.

Kimaiyo stated that since the deceased did not leave a suicide note behind, the incident's motivation is still unknown. He added that all of her certificates were left on her bed.

“We are investigating the incident. We are yet to establish the motive for now,” he said.
