Nigerian Woman Collapses and Dies While Preparing Breakfast for Her Family
A Port Harcourt-based businesswoman, Amarachi Okpala, collapsed and passed away in her kitchen while preparing breakfast for her family.
According to media personality Chukwudi Iwuchukwu, the tragic incident occurred on the morning of Saturday, August 3, 2024.
Her husband found her unconscious and rushed her to the hospital, where she was pronounced dead.
“We are facing a slumping epidemic in our country, and it’s becoming quite concerning. Whether it’s the water we drink or the food we consume, something is triggering these incidents. May her soul rest in peace,” Iwuchukwu commented.
Friends and acquaintances have taken to social media to mourn her loss.
“Typing ‘Rest in peace’ for you is so hard, Amarachi Okpala. Who will take care of your little kids now? My beloved friend, how could you collapse and pass away in your kitchen?” wrote a friend named Rose.
Omade Enyi added, “It’s painful and disheartening to lose young people in their prime. While I’m not saying this lady’s death is cardiac-related, it most likely is, as many sudden deaths are. Don’t ignore chest pains; seek medical advice early. Cardiac problems can be hereditary, and ignoring symptoms can be perilous.”
