The Eboma family in Idumu-Oza community, Agbor Kingdom, Delta State, is demanding justice after the death of their daughter, Mrs. Etunim Henrieta Ebere Sunday, a mother of three.
The deceased, Mrs. Etunim Henrieta Ebere Sunday, a mother of three, was said to have suffered repeated violence in her marriage to Mr. Ebere Sunday, an indigene of Alisimie in Agbor.
Speaking on behalf of the family, the patriarch, Mr. Friday Eboma, alleged that his daughter endured sustained abuse over time, which ultimately led to her death on March 24, 2026.
According to him, the most severe incident occurred on January 23, when the victim was allegedly locked inside her home and beaten. She reportedly lost consciousness and was taken to a hospital in Agbor for treatment.
Family members say she never fully recovered from the injuries, as her health continued to deteriorate in the weeks that followed.
Her younger sister, Blessing, also alleged that the deceased had lived in fear due to repeated abuse and had reached out for help shortly before her condition worsened.
The family further claimed that the couple’s children confirmed ongoing violence, alleging that their father frequently assaulted their mother both at home and at her place of business.
They have rejected attempts at reconciliation from the husband’s family, insisting instead on a full explanation of the circumstances surrounding her death.
The Eboma family has now urged authorities to conduct a thorough investigation and ensure that anyone found responsible is held accountable.
As of the time of filing this report, efforts to reach the accused for comment were unsuccessful.
