Parents demand justice over nurse’s mysterious death in Imo
The parents of Ginika Judith Okoro, a 22-year-old female nurse who died in the home of her boyfriend, Charles Ndukwu, in Ezeogba, Awaka, Owerri North Local Government Area of Imo State, have urged the Nigeria Police and the state government to investigate the mysterious death of their only daughter.Mrs. Caroline Nneji, the mother of the late nurse, told NigerianWatch on Thursday that her only daughter died last Sunday while visiting a young guy named Charles. My only daughter, who is 22 years old, was raised by us. She owns a pharmacist shop where she serves patients, and as a nurse, she occasionally visits patients' homes to treat them. This fateful Sunday, she went to see a young man and died in his house.
“My only eye has gone. What sin did I commit that cannot be forgiven,” she wept.
On how she was informed of the death of her daughter, she said, “Around 9 pm on Sunday, the said young man by name Charles Ndukwu came to our house and told us that our daughter was unconscious and he took her to the hospital where the doctor confirmed her dead.”
Mr. Nneji, the stepfather of the nurse, "The suspect, Charles Ndukwu, told us 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."
Our correspondent learned that Ndukwu had been arrested and remanded by police for further investigation.
The deceased's parents, unable to hide their grief, urged the police and the government to conduct a comprehensive investigation into the situation in order to uncover the truth behind the inexplicable death and render them justice.

We only want the police and the state government to conduct a thorough inquiry into our daughter's strange death. We merely want the truth; after all, our daughter cannot be brought back to life," they told our correspondent.
