Onijah, who originally traveled to Pakistan in October to meet Pakistani man Nidal Ahmed Memon, later found herself facing personal and emotional challenges after the 19-year-old refused to marry her amid peer pressure.
The American national however decided to stay in Pakistan, demanding financial support, and her story became widely known, eventually prompting Sindh Governor Kamran Khan Tessori to intervene. Despite offers to return home, Robinson remained in Pakistan and spent some time at a charity shelter before being admitted to Jinnah Hospital for psychiatric care.
