How TV Anchor, Somtochukwu Jumped Through The Window, Sustaining Severe Injuries But Unfortunately The Police Patrol Vehicle Had No Fuel To Move Her To The Hospital

A family friend has finally spoken out on the tragic passing of Arise TV anchor, Somtochukwu Maduagwu, who died under heartbreaking circumstances.

Recall that the talented journalist lost her life during an armed robbery at her Katampe residence in Abuja in the early hours of Monday, September 29.

Confirming the devastating news, Arise News took to their official social media platforms to announce the death of Somtochukwu, who was not only a brilliant broadcaster but also a lawyer and model.

The family friend, while speaking to investigative journalist Temilola Sobola on Instagram, said that Somtochukwu lost her life following a robbery attack at her residence. Armed robbers stormed her apartment complex, moving from flat to flat and dispossessing occupants of their valuables. Unfortunately, the police were alerted but failed to arrive on time.

The family friend revealed that the chaos and commotion from the attack caused panic, prompting Somtochukwu to make a desperate move. In a bid to escape before the robbers reached her flat, she jumped through the window, sustaining severe injuries.

Tragically, moments after she hit the ground, the police finally showed up. In pain, she reportedly begged them to rush her to the hospital, but they claimed their patrol vehicle had no fuel. Before alternative help could reach her, she passed away.

Sharing the details on her Instagram page, journalist Temilola Sobola wrote; “This is 29 years old Somtochukwu Maduagwu, the Arise TV reporter who passed away after an armed robbery at her residence. A family friend has shed more light on what really happened: The armed robbers went to her apartment complex and were moving from flat to flat, robbing their occupants. The police were called but they didn’t show up. The commotion that trailed the robberies (which she heard from her flat) caused fear to grip Somtochukwu so before the robbers made it to her own apartment, she jumped out through the window.

A few minutes after she hit the ground and hurt herself pretty bad, the police finally arrived. She begged the police to take her to the hospital for immediate medical treatment but they (the police) said they had no fuel in their vehicle. Before she could call for an alternative help, she gave up the ghost. The FCT police have started their investigation into the matter……”
