Nigerian Dentist Gunned Down By Neighbour In The US

Akintunde Bowden a Nigerian dentist residing in Wisconsin  died on April 19,2025. He was shot dead by his neighbor after he asked her to turn down her loud music.



Akintunde was watching basketball and his neighbor keionna McGowan was disturbing him with her loud music. He went over to her apartment and asked that she tune down her music.

Akintunde allegedly banged on her door, McGowan claimed the banging made her afraid . She agreed to turn down the music but the situation took another turn when Akintunde started kicking her door and she thought he might break in so in that moment she took her gun and opened fire on Akintunde. She shot him once on the stomach and he died at the scene of the argument.

Seeing what she had done, McGowan screamed for help and officers came to the scene where he was pronounced dead. An autopsy conducted showed that the impact of the gunshot was severe, it pierced through several of his organs.

If convicted she risk spending 25 years in prison and for the possession of a dangerous weapon another 5 years could be added to her sentence or the option of a $100,000 fine.
The deceased was engaged and was planning to get married this year

    1. I have two people that always say they can't live in USA because of the gun violence.
      That lady is a very wicked soul, kill a whole human being because of argument.
      The man shouldn't have confronted her, knowing the kind of country he lived, may his soul rest in peace.

    2. Any country with a lot of guns circulating in the general population shouldn’t even be considered for a vacation.

    5. Canada has more legal guns than the US yet there are way less fewer deaths from guns there so it’s just the people. The US is full of people with racist ideologies in their head coupled with propaganda and wrong interpretation of gun laws.

  14. So sad. My people in the Us please if you can afford it, try as much as possible to stay away from awon Daquan and Trinisha. Na so so senseless disputes that will not occur amongst civilized people you will be experiencing. Them get too much pent up anger. Can you imagine killing someone because you were being loud and obnoxious.

    1. Not just Daquan and Trinisha. Also Karen and Walter. They all resolve issues with a gun. That’s why some people would rather call the police for minor noise disturbances than talk to their neighbors in person.

    1. Yes, they love their pet snakes over there. Not to mention their Florida Everglades is full of big snakes, ppl even make a living from catching and killing snakes. Any day those pythons have reason to crawl out of the Everglades and go a visiting will be a day of days😀

      The best ppl to live around are Muslims, most weird things are haram so you will be safe.

    People do not have the fear of God anymore.

    The dentist should have called the police to report instead of going there by himself.

  33. This is so sad. Very sad. Keonna McGowan is a cashier at a grocery store, probably a stereotypical “Akata”, a term used for ghetto African Americans (most African Americans are NOT Akatas). I pray God comforts his family🙏🏾 For whatever it’s worth please avoid living in the ghettos of America. He lived there because of his good heart, he served the poor in the Milwaukee area and probably preferred to live among them though as the head of dentistry in his workplace he could afford to live in a safer area.

    I know there is little diversity in the suburbs but rural white america and ghetto black America have more guns and more senseless violence than the suburbs. This was pure wickedness and I pray she gets a long jail term.

    1. I think a white person is highly more likely to kill you as a black than an African American. Check the stats, go step on the lawn of a white man and see if he doesn't have several guns ready. It's wickedness though but culturally to them its their right, but I learned early on in this country to avoid confrontations of any kind because they usually respond to altercations with guns.

  34. Don’t go banging on someone’s door too. He lives here and should know laws that govern his city or state. When you go banging and kicking someone’s door, you give them the opportunity to kill you and claim self defense. If the case goes to court and there’s evidence that he was kicking and banging on the door, the shooter may walk free.

    1. That was what she told the police. He is not here to tell his side of the story.
      Two young and promising Nigerian Doctors, dead within two months. All here.

    2. So you believe her? The guy is dead and can't defend Himself so she would say anything to be justified.

    3. I pray she doesn't it'll make her kill again

    4. And how are they to beleive the word of someone that committed murder? This was her defence. Whos was there to verify? All we know is that he is dead and she shot him. No guns found on him or weapons to claim that level of self defence. She was the one that opened to door to "his kicking" she could have warned him she would call police, or that she had a gun. Did she? no. Just opened the door, shot and murdered him in cold blood.

    5. @17:50, it doesn't matter if she is lying. A court of law is based on evidence and unless the prosecutor provides enough evidence, this lady will walk scot free. The law can only convict someone when "beyond reasonable doubt" - the prosecutor can prove they are guilty of an offense. I notice many people don't really know how the law works

  35. Oh God! RIP to the deceased. I'm short of words.

  36. I think the accuse was exaggerating the “ banging on the door story” no one bangs on anyone’s door in a civilised society. Besides, a lot of people have CCTV cameras, including on their door bells. Some will even see the visitor on their phone. So she should spare us the banging the door story because we are not buying it.
