The 63 years old grandma left Nigeria for Canada to pay a visit to her 32 years old daughter, Lydia and her 36 years old son in law, Lucky Ogbejiele. And what was meant to be a joyous family reunion has turned into a monumental tragedy with the husband of her daughter allegedly stabbing her to death.
The Bereaved Daughter Narrates the Horror :
“When I returned from work, I saw my husband coming out of the house in his work uniform, going to work. He immediately turned back and followed me behind, and I opened the door and asked him if he was going to work.
He answered that ‘he had resigned from his job,’ which I knew nothing about at that time,” she continued.
Immediately, I entered the house. He followed me behind and locked the door, and then he started attacking me with a knife, trying to kill me by stabbing my stomach, neck, shoulder, hand and head multiple times. I was able to escape from the house during the process of struggling to survive, I didn’t see or hear from my mum, not knowing that he had already stabbed my mum multiple times.
“As a mother of two and a survivor of this traumatic experience, I am doing my best to stay strong for my family,” she said.
“However, the costs involved in repatriating my mother’s body are more than I can manage alone.
“Your kindness and support would mean the world to me and my family during this harrowing time.
