A cross-country love story that is buzzing like crazy all over the internet
Onija Andrew Robinson, a 33-year-old woman from the United States, travelled all the way to Karachi, Pakistan, to marry a 19-year-old Pakistani boy, Nidal Ahmed Memon. But her love story took a tragic end as the Nidal family refused to accept her as their daughter-in-law. This incident caught the attention of both Pakistani and international media, making it more complicated. The legal issues, cultural differences, and financial demands make the situation worse.
How did it start?
Well, like other love stories, their love also sparks through social media. They share feelings through online platforms and promised to marry each other once united. The Onija, Andrew, being madly in love with Nidal, divorced her husband and abandoned her children just to spend a lifetime with her love in Pakistan.
“We Are Already Married”. Onija Andrew stated.
“Although we are married, we don’t have children yet. I only want a secure home with him,” she stated, rejecting claims that she was after money.
“Money is nothing; I have money, and everyone here has money. This is about love, not wealth,” she insisted.
But things took tragic turns when Onijah Andrew landed in Karachi, Pakistan, on 11 October 2024. The Nidal Memon’s family disapproved of their love because of cultural differences and their 14-year age gap. Due to family pressure, Nadal also refused to marry Onija Andrew.
Onija went to Nidal’s house in search of him, but the Nidal family had already vacated the house to avoid controversy. She spent all the night in the parking area as a sit-in protest. Her actions gained attention from the neighbours, and they called the police to handle the situation.
As Onijah Andrew’s one-month tourist visa expired, immigration authorities intervened. They escorted her to the airport to board a Qatar Airways flight to the United States. However, the airline offloaded her after she misbehaved with two staff members. This situation involved the U.S. consulate in Karachi, who even tried to talk with her and help her to return to the United States, but she simply denied.
Later, Ramzan Chhipa personally escorted her to the main headquarters of Chhipa Fountain near FTC Karachi from the police station. Ramzan Chhipa said, “She is like my sister, and we will take care of her.”.
Now what did Onija Andrew demand on this betrayal?
She wanted 3000 dollars weekly for her expenses along with Pakistani citizenship.
Onija Andrew while interviewing to Geo news said: “You got to give me $3,000 a week. I’m becoming a citizen of Pakistan, that’s all I got to say for tonight.”
As for Nidal, the authorities captured him for questioning but later released him after inquiry.
For Now, according to sources, Onija Andrew is transferred to Jinnah Post Graduate Medical Centre due to concerns over her mental health. Reports say that Onija Andrew has been exhibiting incoherent speech and swelling in her hands and feet. The doctors are currently examining her. Her son, Jeremiah Andrew Robinson, also shared that her mother suffers from cognitive impairment disorder and is not mentally well.
