A 37-year-old Nigerian woman, Chidimma Susa Ezenyili, who worked as a caregiver in the United Kingdom slumped on February 22 and died two days later.
Ezenyili who was a lawyer in Nigeria was tendering to an elderly woman, Ian Hale on Scott Road when she collapsed while on duty.
Ezenyili and her husband, Friday left Nigeria in August 2023, to go and work as caregivers on sponsorship visas to give their toddler daughter Mandy a better life.
The 37-year-old migrated to the UK and had been caring for the 86-year-old Hale for the past five months.
Hale’s daughter, Catherine Segal, said;
“She (Ezenyili) was driven there by her husband with their three-year-old daughter as she wasn’t feeling well but didn’t want to let my dad down.”
Speaking further, Segal said the caregiver collapsed on Thursday, February 22, and stopped breathing and did not have a pulse.
“Naturally, her husband started shouting for help. The neighbourhood raced to help. Myself and my husband ran outside along with our next-door neighbour and our neighbour from across the road. We had two GoodSAM first responders arrive shortly after to assist. The community first responder along with several ambulances, police and the critical care team arrived to take over attempts to save her life and were successful in getting her on life support in the ambulance.”
Segal said the deceased was taken to Addenbrooke’s Hospital in Cambridge, where doctors at the neurosciences critical care unit discovered she had suffered a severe brain haemorrhage.
In his narration, Segal’s husband, Saul said;
“Sadly, life support was turned off two days later, on February 24, and she passed with her husband by her side. Suzy came here as a carer to fill a need in our community. She was qualified in law in Nigeria and was planning to attain her qualifications to practise law here after her sponsorship as a career finished. She was a really good carer. Kind, considerate and always willing to help no matter what the circumstances. Her dream was for her daughter, Mandy, to attend school in the UK and to make a new life here where she would have the opportunities that Suzy and Friday never had growing up in Nigeria.”
