Man On The Run After Killing Pregnant Fiancee, Daughter

Four days was what separated Wealth Nnamdi from traditional wedding to her pregnant fiancee, Osasu Isaac but the much expected ceremony would no longer hold as Osasu is now late.

More tragic is the fact that she was sent to the great beyond by the same man who would have walked her down the aisle.

Wealth was so angry he took the woman to the great beyond along with her daughter from a previous relationship, Miracle.

Residents in Idiangbona Street in Ovbiogoe Community of Edo State, where the incident took place are still trying to come to terms with the circumstances.

Unfortunately, they could not do anything to secure the woman having been used to the couple quarreling all the time.

A source in the community, who spoke on condition of anonymity, told Punch that the couple had been together for over three years, with Nnamdi moving in with Osasu and her daughter from a previous relationship.

Their traditional wedding had been fixed for March 29, while the church ceremony was scheduled for April 6.

“It is heartbreaking because she was excited about the wedding. She was already pregnant for him, and they had been living together. But on Sunday, they had a serious argument. We didn’t think much of it because they usually fought,” the source said.

“When the argument stopped, we thought they had settled. But after two days, a foul smell started coming from their room. That was when we called the police.”

Confirming the incident on Tuesday, the Police Public Relations Officer for Edo State, Moses Yamu, said officers from the Ekiadolor Division forced the door open after neighbours reported a disturbing odour.

“The Edo State Police Command has since commenced an investigation into the gruesome murder of a woman popularly known as ‘Mama Hallelujah’ and her three-year-old daughter, Miracle,” Yamu stated.

He added, “On March 18, 2025, at about 8:30 pm, the Ekiadolor Division received a report from a concerned neighbour who complained of a strong odour coming from the deceased’s apartment.

“Upon arrival, officers discovered the room locked from the outside. When they forced it open, they found the decomposing bodies of the woman and her daughter. The woman had a deep cut on her head, suspected to have been inflicted with a machete, while the child was found lifeless on the bed.”

“The suspect has gone into hiding, and the command is making all efforts to track him down and bring him to justice,” he added.

Many are still in shock that a man could take the life of her pregnant fiancee.
