Osaghae’s Widow Still Awaits Justice Two Years On

Two years after Fidelis Osaghae disappeared under mysterious circumstances, his widow Esther continues to seek answers and justice. On July 29, 2024, Osaghae, a 33-year-old restaurant manager, never returned home after promising to be back shortly. His wife Esther received a call directing her to a hospital in Afashio, Edo State, where she would learn the fate of her husband. Her two-month-old daughter was left with her sister, Mabel.
At the hospital, Mabel discovered Osaghae's body, which raised numerous questions about his death. Despite multiple autopsy examinations and conflicting toxicology reports, the circumstances surrounding Osaghae's demise remain unclear. One toxicology report from November 2024 revealed the presence of chlorpyrifos, an insecticide, while another from April 2025 showed no traces of organophosphorus or carbamate insecticides, but instead detected tetrahydrocannabinol (THC).
Esther remains frustrated by the lack of resolution in her husband's case and demands justice for the husband she lost just days before their first wedding anniversary. The case has garnered significant media attention, but Esther still awaits answers to the questions that plagued her on the day her husband disappeared.
