A fan of Manchester United in Kenya has committed suicide after the team suffered a one-nil defeat in the hands of Newcastle on Saturday at the Old Trafford.

The fan jumped from a seventh storey of a building to his death after failing to take in the defeat especially that it was coming in after the team lost to Everton mid last week.

Cases of English football results disastrously affecting lives of Africans are on an increase now with the most recent and outrageous, before this one, being the case of a man in Uganda who lost his home in a bet after Arsenal lost to Manchester United.

Manchester United’s performance has dwindled ever since the coming in of David Moyes as the new manager.
