The body of the 32-year-old was found in the commercial capital Dar es Salaam on Sunday with the suicide note and a glass containing traces of the chemical, used for killing insects on livestock, regional police commissioner Alfred Tibaigana told Reuters.
"I've decided to end my life," Tibaigana quoted the suicide note as saying.
"I am fed up with the constant nagging of my first wife."
Police did not have any further details about the man's death in the east African country, where polygamy is common.
Damn.
