Talent Kudzai Chisvinga is believed to have committed suicide at her parent’s home following an argument with her mother over artificial nails she had.

“She was then asked to prepare tea by her stepfather but instead she went to her mother’s bedroom where she took the cotton pesticide and her stepfather later heard her screaming and he rushed to the bedroom. She was rushed to Runyararo Clinic and kater referred to Masvingo Provincial Hospital where she later died,” said the source under condition of anonymity.
The police have confirmed the incident, urging residents to find amicable ways of solving problems than taking their own lives.
