A NIGERIAN nurse residing in Leeds, United Kingdom, Nnena Miriam, has been found dead in her apartment.
The news was confirmed in a statement released by Fellow Nurses Africa, an organisation committed to promoting the nursing profession in Africa.
It revealed that police discovered Miriam’s body following a missing person report.
“It is with heavy hearts and deep sorrow that we report the sudden passing of one of our own, Nnena Miriam, a dedicated and professional nurse based in Leeds, United Kingdom,” it wrote.
The organisation explained that a close friend, alarmed by Miriam’s sudden absence from work and repeated unanswered calls, filed a missing person report.
Police later discovered her lifeless body in her residence.
“Nurse Miriam was found dead in her room earlier this week under heartbreaking circumstances. According to reports, her last shift was on Sunday of last week,” the association said.
It was also revealed that Miriam had recently returned to the UK after travelling to Nigeria for her introduction ceremony preparatory to her traditional marriage.
“Tuesday, April 29, was meant to be her special day — a day of joy, celebration, and new beginnings”, the statement added.
Colleagues described Miriam as a nurse who embodied kindness, dedication, and resilience in her profession.
