Usifo Ataga: As Chidinma Ojukwu Begins To Crack

Published

on

On Tuesday, the Lagos State Police announced that it had arrested more suspects in connection with the murder of late Super TV CEO, Usifo Ataga.

To clear doubts, the police added that the prime suspect, a 21 year old Chidinma is still in detention. Of course, the police disclosure of arresting more suspects did not come as surprise to many as there was obvious evidence that indicated that Chidinma could not have perpetrated the dastardly act alone.

From the preliminary report, there was fierce struggle between Ataga and his killers before he was overpowered and murdered.

A concise account of the incident from the family also lent credence to the widespread assertion that the media Mogul was murdered by motley crowd of Killers.

A statement released by the family earlier in the month read, “Usifo died a horrific death. He was not stabbed two or even five times. He was stabbed multiple times. His hands were bound tightly, and the marks were still all over his wrists, accompanied with evidence of torture and assault even as his corpse lay

“No one in the entire building heard his screams because he was gagged. Let that sink in. He was bound, gagged, and tortured.

“The now-viral video of the room with the deceased lying on the floor shows a room with blood-stained walls and floor, evidence of a ferocious struggle. One person could never have carried these out.”

However, what’s been the big question is who were Chidinma’s accomplices and why was she shielding them by refusing to divulge their identity.

Recall that Chidinma confessed to killing Usifo when she was apprehended couple of days after the incident, she claimed that Usifo Ataga tried to have sexual intercourse with her, hence her resort to self defense during which she killed him. Chidinma’s account fell flat in the face of evidence obtained from the scene of the murder.

In a bizarre twist of event, Chidinma, on Monday, recanted her initial statement where of she claimed responsibility for the death of Usifo.

Ojukwu had in a video that went viral on Monday said that she was not responsible for the death of Ataga saying that she left their love nest to get supplies and drugs to meet him already murdered.

She said she was gripped by fear and had to hurriedly leave the service apartment they were in in order not to be incriminated in the murder.

The recent revelations from Chidinma and the police have definitely changed the trajectory of the case. And there are poignant questions that must be asked here and now.

Why did Chidinma confess to committing the heinous crime only to sing a different song two weeks later? Is she a hapless pawn in a deadly attempt to cover up a gruesome murder of a prominent personality?

Did she reach some kind of agreement with certain individuals to incriminate herself, hence diverting public attention and scrutiny from the real killers who will in turn use their influence to get her a soft-landing and subsequent release? Did she, after it appears she has been left in the lurch and with no help coming her way, decide to disclose the identities of her partners in crime? 

Is it not telling that the police announced the arrest of more suspects barely two days after her she denied her involvement in Usifo death?

So many questions begging for answers.
