American woman of Pakistan fame has a shocking revelation about her 'husband'
Onijah Andrew Robinson, the American woman who made headlines after being stranded in Pakistan for four months, is once again in the spotlight.
The United States (US) citizen had travelled to Pakistan in pursuit of love but was shockingly left alone by Nidal Ahmed Memon, a young man from Karachi's Garden area. After making headlines for months over her refusal to return to her country, she was finally sent back in February 2025.
Months later, Onijah has made a surprising claim, insisting that the very man who abandoned her is still her husband.
A viral video showed Onijah, who was reportedly stuck in Dubai for another month after leaving Pakistan, finally back in the US.
“I'm glad to be back in New York. I'm happy about that. That's all I have to say right now,” she said in the video.
When asked if she was still in contact with anyone from Pakistan, she confidently replied, “Yes, I am [in contact] with my husband. He lives in Pakistan. I love you, baby. We are together."
Clarifying that she was referring to Nidal Ahmed, Onijah dismissed any speculation about being involved with someone else. She also said that she met him online and later went on a romantic date.
Regarding a possible return to Pakistan, she responded vaguely, “We're going to discuss that. But right now, we're all staying in New York.”
During her stay in Pakistan, Onijah sparked controversy by demanding $3,000 per week for her expenses. In the latest video, she made another bizarre claim about what her Pakistani “in-laws” had to offer. “They're saying they're going to give [me] land, they're gonna give $20K, $50K straight.”
“They were gonna give me $100K every week, but I left. So, we're gonna see what they gonna work on while I'm not there.”
The 33-year-old American woman's story first went viral when she travelled from New York to Karachi to marry Nidal Ahmed, only for him to back out under family pressure—leaving her stranded in a foreign country.
She arrived in Karachi on October 11, 2024, on a 30-day tourist visa. After overstaying, she was unable to leave Pakistan.
Without a valid ticket, Airport Security Force (ASF) officials barred her from entering the airport. Eventually, after Sindh Governor Kamran Tessori intervened, arrangements were made for a new visa, a return ticket, and permission for her exit.
However, when she was cleared for departure, Onijah unexpectedly refused to board the flight, accusing the airline staff of forcing her to leave.
Adding to the bizarre series of events, she was later admitted to Jinnah Hospital's psychiatric ward after her health reportedly deteriorated. Around the same time, her son, Jeremiah Robinson, posted a video from the US claiming that Onijah was bipolar.
Eventually, after persuasion from US Consulate staff in Karachi, she agreed to return to the US.
Even after everything that happened, Onijah insists her relationship with Nidal Ahmed is intact.
