By MBAFAN ADE, Abuja –
The family of Margaret Adiya Ikumu, the 19-year old girl who recently faked her own death in Lagos, has formally apologized to her employer, Dr. Nimechi Ugorji and her family over the unfortunate behaviour.
Margaret had used the image photograph of her employer’s daughter on a fictitious Facebook account in the name of Marvellous Mary, to carry out her evil plan of faking her death.
In an apology message to the Ugorji’s on behalf of Margaret’s family by Mr. Tony Iji, the family expressed regret over the mischievous action of their daughter which obviously tarnished the image and reputation of Dr. Ugorji.
The statement reads, “on behalf of Margaret Ikumu’s family, we wish to tender an unreserved apology to the entire Ugorji family, especially Dr. Nimechi for Margaret’s irresponsible behaviour and for misleading us to also wrongly use the same image of Dr. Nimechi in our posting as Marvellous Mary who claimed to have buried Margaret’s corpse in her mischievous fake death saga.
“All actions concerning the usage of Dr. Nimechi’s image in connection with the fake death plot by Margaret is regrettable”.
The family equally expressed regret over Margaret’s insensitive behavior of parading the corpse of the late matriarch of the Ugorji family on Facebook, late Mrs. Ugorji purported to be her own dead body.
