US Based Nigerian Bodybuilder Father-Of-Two, 26, Dies After Being Shot 4 Times By His Wife During An Argument (pics)

A bodybuilder has died weeks after he was gunned down by his wife in the middle of an argument in front of their children.

Michael Chidozie, 26, died last week after his wife Keaiirra Shavoiyae Chidozie, 28, shot him four times in their home in Houston on March 21, police said. 

He was rushed to Ben Taub Hospital after police found him with gunshot wounds and his wife in a panic holding their two kids, aged three and two.

Chidozie lingered on life support as his family prayed for his recovery, but he suffered a devastating spinal injury and died of complications 18 days later.

Keaiirra was charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon after the shooting, and her charges have not been upgraded since his death.

She claimed to have shot Chidozie in self-defense as she feared for her life during the argument when he followed her into their bedroom.

It’s unclear what the argument was over.  

The argument began elsewhere in the house before she went to the bedroom, where she picked up a pistol and shot him.

Chidozie was shot once in the arm, once in the chest, and twice in his torso and left to die on the bedroom floor.

Police found Keaiirra with the children in a nearby parking lot after witnesses called police to say she was frantically running around asking for help.
