A young Nigerian lady has been confirmed dead after visiting her boyfriend, and her mother is demanding immediate justice.
According to her mother, the young lady had a chemist shop where she worked daily and also provided home services for patients.
However, on Sunday, she visited a man named Charles, and that was the end of her life as she died in his house.
“My only daughter died last Sunday when she visited a young man called Charles. My only daughter, who was 22 years old, was raised by us. She had a chemist shop where she treated patients, and as a nurse, she sometimes went to patients’ houses to treat them. This fateful Sunday, she visited a young man and died in his house,” she narrated.
According to the nurse’s stepfather, Mr. Nneji, the deceased became unconscious after taking pepper soup bought by her boyfriend.
“The suspect, Charles Ndukwu, also reported that he went and bought pepper soup for our daughter, but she became unconscious after taking the pepper soup, and he rushed her to Edochie Clinic, Awaka, in Owerri North, where she was confirmed dead by the presiding doctor," he explained.
It was gathered that Ndukwu had been arrested and remanded by the police for an investigation.
The parents of the deceased, who could not hide their sorrow, called on the police and state government to thoroughly investigate the matter with the view of unraveling the truth behind the mysterious death and serving justice to them.
"All we seek from the police and the state government is a proper investigation for the unraveling of the facts behind our daughter’s mysterious death. It is only the truth that we are seeking; after all, our daughter cannot come back to life again,” they told the publication.
Spokesperson of the State Police Command, ASP Henry Okoye, confirmed the incident.
“The police are investigating the matter. The police are assuring members of the public and the family that they will do everything possible to unravel the cause of the mysterious death of the young girl," he said.
