Tanzanian Man Takes His Own Life After Wife Denies Him Bedroom Duties – Suicide Note Reveals Why

A 38 year old Tanzanian man has been found dead in his room in Njombe Town following a reported disagreement with his wife over their marriage.

The man, identified as Damas Mgaya, was discovered in Kambarage Ward, where police confirmed the incident and linked it to a reported family dispute.

Njombe Regional Police Commander ACP Mahamoud Banga confirmed the incident, which was reported on Tuesday, October 13, 2026, at around 6am.

According to police, Mgaya was found hanging in his room, with a shoelace tied to a window bar.

Preliminary information indicated that the incident may have been linked to tensions between Mgaya and his wife over their relationship and religious beliefs.

Reports stated that his wife allegedly refused to engage in sexual relations, claiming that her husband had not been saved.

ACP Banga reportedly linked the incident to emotional distress arising from the disagreement, although further details about events before his death were not provided.

The reported dispute has drawn attention to the circumstances surrounding Mgaya’s death, with police confirming that they were aware of the incident.

However, the available report does not explain how the disagreement began or whether the couple had experienced similar problems previously.

It also does not establish whether Mgaya left a written message before his death or provide the contents of any alleged suicide note.

The headline refers to a suicide note revealing his reasons, but that detail requires confirmation from a report that explicitly describes the note.

Without that information, the circumstances surrounding the incident remain partly unclear, and the claims about the couple’s disagreement should be treated as allegations.

The incident was reported by Tanzanian media outlet Nipashe on Wednesday, October 14, with ACP Banga identified as the police official who confirmed the death.

Further information from police would help clarify the circumstances leading to Mgaya’s death and establish whether a note was recovered during investigations.
