Bride dies two days to wedding
CITIZENS COMPASS–Two days to her traditional wedding, a bride-to-be, Mirian Chinonso Sunday, has reportedly died in Umuahia, Abia State.
The tragic incident occurred on Friday while the traditional marriage was scheduled for today.
The groom-to-be, Ugochukwu Princewill, popularly known as Donish Gold, had joyfully shared the pre-wedding pictures oblivious of the tragedy.
Donish Gold, on his social media accounts wrote: “Sunday we party. 5th October. Thank you so much for choosing me, my baby girl… love is a beautiful thing.”
Reports said that Mirian began experiencing chest pain while on her way to the market. She was rushed to FMC Umuahia, where doctors made frantic efforts to resuscitate her.
Citizens Compass gathered that she developed complications and was made to undergo an unsuccessful surgery.
She reportedly died in the process.
This threw Friends and loved ones off balance.
Expressing his grief in a post, Christian Ojike Agbaeze, a friend of the fiancé, wrote:
“A day made for celebration has turned to condolences. Blessing, this was not the plan. Uka, my man Donish Gold, take heart; you don’t deserve such cruelty from this world. The Nigerian medical system failed you. We were meant to pay your pride price on Friday 03 2025 and party properly on 05, and you died on Friday 03, a day meant to be your happiest day. Saddest month ever. Why God?”
Another friend reflected on Mirian’s sudden death, emphasizing that she had been healthy and looking forward to her wedding:
“My sister, as we fondly call each other. You left everyone in shock and agony with your sudden death. You were very healthy and excited over your traditional marriage that was supposed to hold tomorrow, being 5th October, until death snatched you away from us last night. I just wish this whole news was a prank, but reality keeps making me sad.”
