American Woman Demands $5,000 Weekly Over Lover’s Betrayal. A heartbroken American woman, O’Neija Andrew Robbins, has made headlines in Pakistan after a failed romance with a young man from Karachi.
The 33-year-old New York resident and mother of two traveled to Pakistan, hoping to marry Nidal Memon, a 19-year-old from Garden West. However, her proposal was rejected by Memon’s family, leaving her stranded and desperate.
Robbins spent a week at Karachi Airport and even refused to return to the United States. In an effort to win over her lover and his family, she reportedly squatted outside their locked home. During an interaction with local media, she asked for $3,000 to share her story and requested that the Pakistani government provide her with $5,000 every week along with citizenship.
Local authorities expressed concern over her mental health and safety, temporarily taking her to a women’s police station. After her insistence, she was returned to the Garden area. Her unusual demands and refusal to leave without financial assistance drew widespread attention and sparked disbelief among many observers.
The Sindh government is closely monitoring the situation, while the US consulate is working to arrange her safe return to the United States. The story highlights a complicated cross-cultural situation and the struggles Robbins faced during her stay in Pakistan.
