Dr Priscilla Nzimiro pictured above was the 1st woman doctor to work in the Igbo region in Nigeria. Sadly she died in 1951 a year after qualifying as a doctor. Photo credit: SeeMeSeeNigeria
Heiya she didn't live long to enjoy her Fame!!! Sudden death will never be my portion,nor my Mum 5 siblings 2inlaws 3nieces three nephews(1 I̶̲̥̅̊n̶̲̥̅̊ the oven) my BFF and friends portion I̶̲̥̅̊n̶̲̥̅̊ Jesus name AMEN!!!
Linda, hopefully this comment will be posted, but she is the millionaire you posted last week, Mary Nzimiro's daughter. Also a cousin to Charlie Boy and that singer Dr Alban.
Oluku like you bonario.... She is not only your grandfather's ex but the lady that broke your heart... I thought you will be looking for methods to heal the broken heart???
Please post this. Thanks for the piece of history. Please check some facts. I understand she died in 1950 in Glasgow, Scotland, where she studied Medicine. She never returned to practice in Igboland or any part of Africa. She was not the sister of Professor Ikenna Nzimiro, but his cousin. She was rounding up her medical studies when she died, and did not qualify as a doctor, although she may have been awarded the qualification posthumously. Her father was Richard Nzimiro, first Mayoress of Port Harcourt, and her mother was the great magnate, Mary Nzimiro. Finally, she was Charlie Boy's cousin. However, be strict about facts so that you don't publish falsehood.
