Story of 21 year-old UNILAG student paraded for killing her lover Super TV CEO

A 21-year-old student of the University of Lagos, Chidinma Adaora Ojukwu was recently paraded by the police for stabbing her lover, Super TV CEO, Mr Usifo Ataga due to drugs and alcohol influence.

According to her, she attacked and stabbed Mr Ataga to death during their stay in a short let apartment in the Lekki area of the state.

“I stabbed him on his neck twice and later on his stomach after he had forcefully had sex with me initially.”

“I was tired and exhausted and wanted to sleep but Mr Michael won’t have any of that. He became very violent and tried choking me to death.”

“We used to meet at his residence in VGC but that day, he said he was doing maintenance in the house and opted that we meet at an apartment.

“I went online to search for the apartment and went there to do a physical inspection. I got to the hotel around 6 pm and he came about an hour.

“We were having fun; drinking, smoking and taking drugs. On Monday, we were together, drinking and smoking. We smoked SK and Loud. We had fun and so I went to get food for both of us and then on Tuesday, he was trying to make advances which I told him I was tired. I was already sleepy then he became violent on me and he got his way which I let him.

“Then towards afternoon, we ordered for smoke and I wasn’t happy with the first one that he did so I was still on my own just smoking and drinking with my food. He too was on his own on the couch so he came onto me while we were both watching a movie and I told him I was not happy with what he did. I told him he didn’t help me or assist in anything but yet he keeps playing me around and then he gave me his ATM card to go and withdraw whatever I want and told me his pin.”

“I was like that’s not what I meant so he became violent trying to get to me and I was resisting and defending myself and at some point, he hit my head on the wall I was struggling to go out but he was stopping me. He even locked the door and he was with the key. I didn’t know where he kept it, so when I get the door he would draw me back and I also retaliated.

“At some point, he was choking me while I was on the kitchen cabinet and then I stretched out to the knife and stabbed his neck twice, when I stabbed him I threw the knife on the bed then he was going for it while I went for it as well. I laid on the bed, that’s when he came on me to hold the knife and I managed to stab him in the stomach.

“When he dragged the knife, he managed to slice my hand and as he was holding it, the knife broke so it slipped from his hand but he was weak and he fell on the floor. While he was lying there, I changed, I looked for the key where he hid and I left the room.”

More so, the state commissioner of the police, Hakeem Odumosu, confirmed Chidinma is an undergraduate student of the University of Lagos, adding that she had confessed to committing the crime.

While the owner of the rented apartment where the tragic incident took place had been arrested, Odumosu also said Ataga’s account had been blocked. This, moreover, to prevents further withdrawals from it by those taking advantage of his untimely death to deplete the account.
