Family of late Wigwe University chancellor refutes claims she was married to Jude Ezeobi

The family of Ulonna Inyama, the Registrar of @WigweUniversity, who tragically passed away in Abuja on Monday, July 29, has announced that, contrary to reports circulating, she was not married to a Mr. Jude Ezeobi.

Law teacher and human rights activist, Chidi Anselm Odinkalu, who made the disclosure via a post on X (formerly Twitter), said: “@fcthighcourt has granted a decree of annulment in respect of the matrimonial claims of Mr. Ezeobi on October 17, 2023.”

Prior to Odinkalu’s post, a group describing itself as the Committee of Friends of Jude Ezeobi released a statement announcing the passing of the “dear wife of our founding president…”

According to a family source, Ulonna Inyama died due to complications from fibroid surgery and an incorrect blood transfusion.

The source revealed that she was initially admitted to a hospital in Abuja for treatment of fibroids, but suffered a fatal reaction after being given the wrong blood type, Vanguard reports.

“She died from blood loss due to fibroid complications under mysterious circumstances. We were told that the wrong blood transfusion led to her death.

“When her condition worsened due to complications, she was transferred to another hospital, where she died,” the source said.

The family has called for an investigation into the circumstances of Inyama’s death.

Inyama’s death comes months after the tragic loss of Wigwe University founder Herbert Wigwe, who died in a helicopter crash in California, USA, along with his wife and son.

Below is the ruling that annulled her marriage to Jude Ezeobi.
