According to Mrs. Nneji, her daughter, who operated a chemist shop and often provided in-home medical care, passed away unexpectedly while visiting Charles on a fateful Sunday evening. Devastated by the loss of their only daughter, the family recounted how Charles informed them of Ginika’s unconscious state late that evening, rushing her to Edochie Clinic where she was pronounced dead by attending medical staff.

They appealed for transparency and justice, stressing their irreparable loss and the need for closure.

In response to inquiries, ASP Henry Okoye, the Imo State Police Public Relations Officer, affirmed that investigations are underway, assuring the public and the family of the deceased of the police force’s commitment to uncovering the circumstances surrounding Ginika’s mysterious death.

The family’s quest for justice underscores the need for a comprehensive investigation into the tragic incident, with hopes of finding solace and closure amidst their profound sorrow.
