A yet-to-be identified man has blamed his late sister’s refusal to heed family advice on her marriage for her death,
The man made the remarks during her burial ceremony in a viral video shared on X on Wednesday.
The deceased, Ann Chioma Odinakachi, 29, also known as Mama Ejima, reportedly died leaving behind her three-year-old twin children.
In the video shared by X user @ChuksEricE, the woman’s brother is seen standing beside her freshly dug grave, holding a shovel and lamenting what he described as her failure to listen to warnings from family members.
“My sister, failing to listen killed you,” he said, with a female voice at the scene agreeing with him.
He added, “It is true that everyone must die, but it is stubbornness that led to your demise. It is also that you were insisting on being with your husband, that is what led you here.”
The grieving brother further prayed that his sister would not encounter a bad husband in her next life, while those present at the burial responded with “Amen”.
“Anna, listen, bad husband will not be your portion in your next life,” he said. “Bad husband’s family will not see you,” he added, as the mourners chorused their agreement.
Online reports claimed that Ann died in Owerri, Imo State, while attempting to give birth to another child.
However, the circumstances surrounding her death and the specific reasons her family blamed her husband were not immediately clear.
