A blog visitor saw this Obituary in an African shop and sent it in ...so sad!
Isioma and her hubby who shot her when she was sleeping |
Tall,elegant and brilliant Isioma Ebegbodi was murdered in cold blood by her Nigerian husband in Texas state of America on Saturday March 22, 2014.
She attended Queen’s College Yaba Lagos and later proceeded to University of Lagos to study Medicine.
She was until her gruesome murder a medical resident physician at Marshfield clinic in Texas.
What really went wrong between a 36 year old wife and her 63 year old husband?Was she suffering in silence until the tragedy happened?So many questions with limited answers.
Her husband, a 63-year-old Nigerian man was later charged with murder after he confessed to shooting her around 3 a.m on Saturday March 22,2014 in west Harris County, Texas USA.
Martin Ebegbodi went to a neighbor’s house and asked him to call police after getting into a fight and then shooting his wife, 36-year-old Isioma Ebegbodi nee Unokanjo.
The Harris County Sheriff’s Department arrived at the house in the 19700 block of Youpon Leaf Way and arrested Ebegbodi.
Martin Ebegbodi and Isioma J Unokanjo were married on February 11, 2005 in Harris County .....Read more here

ReplyDeleteMay her soul Rest in Peace!

ReplyDeleteMay her soul Rest in Peace!
I'm afraid your comment is invalid . Age differences in marriage has absolutely nothing to do with domestic violence
DeleteWhat does age have to do with anything ? If a man is a psycho then he is a psycho & it has nothing to do with his age , quit being so shallow minded
DeleteMy dear it has A LOT to do with marriage. Insecurity issues for the older partner aaaaand that alone is worse than AGBOR witchcraft.
DeleteSo, don't give me the age-is-but-a-number cliche. If this pretty doc could still breathe she won't agree with you.
My dad is 30yrs older than my mum n not for one day did he hit my mum.Its d Person (individual), age is just a number cus my Sis bf hit her n they r d same age. Its d individual
DeleteThis is sad, now the kids will grow up with no father or mother all because of what? Respect!! Was it worth it at the day?
ReplyDeleteExactly!
DeleteEeyah, may her soul rest in peace; I feel so sorry for those kids
ReplyDelete@ the end of the day I meant
ReplyDeleteSee the man face sef he resemble igbo man sha. SMH......
ReplyDeleteR.I.P
ReplyDeleteA blogger posted it a few days after it happened and her classmate narrated how SHOCKED they were over her choice of hussy! Another close friend who has relocated back 2 Nig, also said she was suffering in d marriage and d guy had d blv, she USED him 2 achieve her academic dreams and wants 2 leave him! It was really really really sad! Co's pple that knew her vowed smfin(maybe poverty) pushed her 2 go 4 American hussy
ReplyDeleteGet ur facts right mister,poor wat? Isioma's dad is a medical doctor wit his personal hospital running 4 decades in lag. He has asked d dota 2 leave d marriage severally but her mum is d greedy one here who wants her 2 remain in an abusive marriage. So pls,her dad was never poor n is still not poor.
DeleteIt is so sad and painful. Rest in peace. But really the maiden name really said it all. Unokanjo(house or home is worse).imagine been killed by somebody you share your being with.
ReplyDeleteSee d baba's face sef. Agbaya oshi.
ReplyDeleteVery sad. But I heard the man lied about his age when he was coming for her hand in marriage. (Dnt know how true this is sha). But I believe by the time she found out so many things about the man, their problems escalated. But too late already. Wonder what will happen to her kids now. RIP Isioma
ReplyDeleteSleep well Doctor.
ReplyDeleteStella see wetin our eyes dey see for yankie o esp ladies in d medical field, from LV to RN - Drs may Go help us women o, this is getting too much, only few men understands when d money starts rolling in, some gets too jealous
ReplyDeleteHYBunny
Female medical personnel abroad biko make una marry non Nigerians. I tire o. I have not met 1 happily married couple(with the wife being a med prac), I hope there are some. Our men have so many issues,there is no way anyone can say she pushed him. Someone is always pushing our men. E do Abeg. They do worse yet you don't hear of them being hacked to death, etc. But you push a naija man small, na to kill. Women o please raise men with a sense of accountability pls. This is becoming too much. RIP Doc
ReplyDeleteObviously there was an unstoppable hiccup in the marriage.
ReplyDeleteThe husband should have just divorced her rather than wasting her life.
Even if she used him to achieve whatever, you do not take a life you never and can never create.
RIP Isioma.
#this thing called marriage!
Nah..ISioma did not come from a poverty stricken home...both of her parents are medical doctors..her siblings are in the UK...she married this guy because she loved him nothing more.. Yes he filed for her but she would have gone to the UK otherwise...
ReplyDeleteWhen ISioma moved to the USA she didn't start her residency immediately and therefore had time on her hands, cooking, cleaning and basically being the house girl ...it was when she started her residency that he'll broke loose and he became jealous , suspicious and demanding ....hmmm Na wa o
Evil will slay d wicked, look @ his montrous face self. Women dey suffer, an old man like shld be allowed to get close to such a decent girl. Anyway he will reap what he sowed. RIP Isioma
ReplyDeleteThis wicked man that killed my An Old Queens College girl, may u reap the fruits of it labour.
ReplyDeleteGod forbid you to be an ex QC girl with this rubbish grammar you wrote down.You won't survive a day with this level of expression.
