A woman from the United States finds herself in a difficult situation in Pakistan after her plans to marry a 19-year-old man she met online went awry. Onijah Andrew Robinson, a 33-year-old African American, had traveled to Karachi in October with the intention of tying the knot with Nidal Ahmed Memon. However, things took a sudden turn when Memon's family intervened and prevented the union from taking place, leaving Robinson with no place to go.
Despite the disappointment and rejection, Robinson decided to visit Memon's family home. Unfortunately, it seemed that the family had fled the area, and the house was locked up and unoccupied. Instead of giving up and going back to the U.S., Robinson chose to stage a sit-in outside the building, which garnered media attention and made headlines in Pakistan.
As her tourist visa expired, a non-governmental organization offered to help Robinson get a return ticket back home. However, she rejected their offer for unknown reasons and started talking about her "plan" to rebuild the country in videos she shared online. She even went as far as asking the government for 100,000 Pakistani Rupees to carry out her plan.
"My plan is to rebuild this entire country. I'm asking for $100k, and I need $20k in cash by the end of this week. That's my demand from the government," she stated, as reported by mint.com. "The government needs to fix these streets... it's ridiculous here, I don't like it. You all need to understand that Pakistan needs new buses, taxis, and cars. Please listen to me, my name is Onijah Ahmed, wife of Nidal Ahmed."
In other videos that went viral, Robinson claimed that she and her "husband" were planning to travel to Dubai, but she was still searching for him. This led to the Pakistani government struggling to get her to cooperate, and eventually placing her in a psychiatry department at Karachi's Jinnah Post Graduate Hospital for a mental health examination. Robinson's son also came forward and revealed that his mother has been struggling with mental health issues, which may have contributed to her current situation in Pakistan.
He described her as "mentally unstable" and with impaired judgment, which is why she has been unable to come back to the U.S. despite her family's efforts, including purchasing a flight ticket for her. However, Robinson refused to board the plane, causing its delay.
In a recent video, Robinson admitted to being in a financial bind and expressed her willingness to finally return to America. "I would like you guys to book my ticket back to New York," she said. "Money is short right now, and I will appreciate it."
This situation has garnered a lot of attention, with many people criticizing Robinson's actions and behavior. Some have even pointed out the possible issues of mental health and cultural differences that may have contributed to this ordeal. Whatever the case may be, it is clear that Robinson is in need of help and support to get back to her home country and receive the necessary care and treatment she needs.
