Chidinma Ojukwu: I didn’t Report Ataga’s Death Due To Fear

Chidinma Ojukwu, the 300-level Mass Communication student of the University of Lagos, UNILAG, who was arrested last Wednesday, over the murder of Chief Executive Officer, Super TV, Usifo Ataga, in a service apartment in the Lekki area of Lagos State

A University of Lagos 300-level student on trial for the alleged murder of Super TV CEO Michael Ataga, Chidinma Ojukwu, told a Lagos State High Court on Monday that she refrained from reporting the incident to the police because she was afraid of being falsely implicated. Chidinma, who testified before Justice Yetunde Adesanya in the court’s Tafawa Balewa Square division, explained that she was reluctant to do so because she had seen people accused after reporting crimes in the past. She also said that, out of nervousness, she had thought of calling the apartment’s security man but ended the conversation.Read More
