A 28-year-old Nigerian woman, Rebecca Oyedotun, has died after she slumped on the eve of her wedding day.

Rebecca and her fiancé, Abiodun Oluwadamilare, were set to wed on Saturday, August 19, 2023, in Ogbomosho, Oyo State, but she d!ed at the hospital on Sunday, August 20.
It was gathered that the Federal University of Technology (FUT), Minna, graduate, and her friends were having her bridal shower ceremony on Friday, August 18, when she slumped at 10:30pm.
She was reportedly rushed to LAUTECH Teaching Hospital in Ogbomoso, where she was revived, but her condition did not improve until she gave up the ghost in the early hours of Sunday.
“Everything was set by Friday, the cows had been slaughtered and the meat fried, every necessary preparation was made, there were a lot of people coming and going to rejoice with us, the groom and his people had come from Abeokuta,” a sister-in-law of the deceased, who did not however mention her name, told our correspondent at their residence at Caretaker area, on Friday, in the presence of the father of the deceased, Evangelist Moses Oyedotun.
She further revealed that the parents of the groom had in fact slaughtered their cow in Ogbomoso as Abiodun is their only child, not knowing that tragedy was ominously lurking in the corner.
“We had bought ‘ewedu’ to be used, ingredients had been ground, and in the morning of Saturday, amala (yam flour paste) was made, rice was ready, the venues were set, but the ceremony was never held as the bride was never available,” the sister-in-law added.
