TRAGEDY! Lady dies few hours to wedding 

CITIZENS COMPASS – A bride-to-be, Esther Chigozie Ihebunnadu, has reportedly died few hours to her wedding.

She reportedly lost her life in a ghastly accident along Enugu -Onitsha Road in the Eastern part of Nigeria. 

Her family has since been thrown into mourning as her wedding was supposed to hold on Friday, June 23 at Deeper Life Bible Church, Obodo Road, Agbarho, Delta State before she lost her life on June 22, 2023. 

It was learnt that Ihebunnadu was on his way to her community, Okposi, Ohazarra local government area of Ebonyi state when the ugly incident occurred.

Speaking about the tragic incident, Obinna Michael, a relative of the deceased, expressed sadness over the incident.

He said: “What a wicked and terrible world we are in.

“We heard that her traditional marriage was supposed to be on Friday, 23rd June 2023 which is today, but she had a ghastly motor vehicular accident on her way to Enugu, her home state (for the traditional marriage) on Wednesday 21st June and passed on Thursday, June 22.

“This is heart-breaking, heartache and terrible news.

“Both families are going through a traumatic experience now. May God comfort them and stand by them.”

Lamenting further, he stated that “we are not praying for untimely death, but yet we are to prepare for it everyday, every moment and every second.

“We must add death to our daily plans too, we don’t know when, where, or how it’ll happen. Only God can predict and only Him knows how long a man will live on earth.”
