This story sounds like something from a movie but it happened and it is shocking!!!
An American returnee named Peter Mokwuah was reportedly held captive in his own mansion by his siblings for nearly a year in Anambra state.
His daughter, Ifunanya Mokwuah, who lives in the USA, grew concerned after losing contact with him for several months. Despite repeated reassurances from her aunt and uncle that her father was fine, she felt compelled to travel to Nigeria in January 2022.
Her father (Peter) had lived and worked in New York for 25 years before retiring and returning to Nigeria, where he had already built a mansion in his village during his younger years.
He also receives a $5,000 monthly pension for his upkeep.
Perhaps this was what they targeted immediately he had a stroke.
Despite the silence, his daughter continued to send him money, thinking he may have run out.
When Ifunanya arrived at the village, she encountered resistance from her uncle and others who had blocked the compound entrance and verbally attacked her. With help from local youths and villagers, she gained access to the house. Her uncle falsely claimed her father was in Abuja, but after insisting on checking upstairs, she discovered him lying weak and emaciated on a dirty mattress.
His beard and nails were overgrown, and he was clearly neglected in his poor medical state. Peter recognised his daughter and was visibly relieved.
Thankfully, she was able to remove him from the house, moved him to Lagos for further treatment and returned to the USA with him. SEE FULL VIDEO DETAILS
