Canadian-Based Nigerian Doctor Questions Rising Divorce Trend Among Immigrant Couples In The US



Canada-based Nigerian emergency room physician Arinze Onwumelu, popularly known as @official_doctor_zo on Instagram, has sparked widespread discussion after raising concern over the increasing divorce rate among immigrant couples in the United States.

In a video posted on his Instagram page, the physician reflected on events from 22 years ago, recalling how many of his friends in the US were eager for him to marry a nurse, believing it was the best path to success abroad. However, he chose to marry his school girlfriend, who is a lawyer. According to him, today, about 85 per cent of those friends are now divorced.

Dressed in a white designer T-shirt and speaking in a calm, reflective tone, he questioned the reasons behind the sudden collapse of those marriages, asking viewers, “What happened?” in an attempt to start a larger conversation on the issue.

His video quickly generated reactions online, with many viewers highlighting the challenges of immigrant life, marital expectations, and the evolving dynamics among Nigerian professionals in the diaspora.
