A Nigerian lady has shared a shocking story of how she allegedly found her father, whom her family buried 10 years ago, alive and selling suya in Nsukka, Enugu State.

The lady, identified as Adaeze, said she was 18 when her father died after battling a fever.

According to her account, her mother rushed him to the hospital, where a doctor reportedly confirmed his death. The family later took his body to their village and laid him to rest.

However, Adaeze said she was left speechless last week when she heard a familiar voice calling out to customers at a market in Nsukka.

When she turned around, she claimed she saw the same man she had mourned and buried a decade earlier.

The emotional and disturbing account was shared on Facebook by Omo Lydia.

The young woman said life became very difficult after her father’s burial. She alleged that her mother became very cruel, while her younger brother eventually dropped out of school.

Adaeze said she was forced to take responsibility for the family and became the breadwinner. She reportedly sold akara and hawked pure water to raise money for her younger brother’s school fees.

She explained that she struggled to keep the family going, believing her father was no longer alive.

Adaeze said the shocking incident happened last week when her younger brother called and asked her to visit him in Nsukka because he had found an affordable school for his son.

While buying yams at a market, she suddenly heard a familiar voice shouting:

“Buy suya! Hot suya! Buy suya!”

She turned around and claimed she saw a man who looked exactly like her late father. According to her, he had the same face, voice and laugh, as well as a scar on his left hand.

Unable to believe what she was seeing, Adaeze reportedly ran towards him and shouted.
