Ataga’s murder: Chidinma revealshow she kills Super TV CEO
Chidinma Ojukwu, the 300-Level Mass Communication student of the University of Lagos (UNILAG), arrested last week over the murder of Chief Executive Officer, Super TV, Usifo Ataga, has revealed that she now sees Usifo’s face in her dream.
This is even as more facts have emerged on how she murdered 50-year-old Usifo.
The 21-year-old lady said that she wished she would wake up to discover that the whole drama was only a dream.
“I have never had peace since the day I was arrested. Never in my wildest imagination did I envisage I would kill a human being. I see his face in my dream every night. At times I would be scared to sleep.“I have been begging God for forgiveness. This is not what I wanted for myself. I don’t know what fate holds for me,” she said.“I am also begging his family to forgive me, especially his children. Ah! God, what have I done?” she exclaimed, burying her face in her palms.
While maintaining that she carried out the killing alone, Chidinma told detectives at the Homicide Section of the State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department, SCIID, Yaba that she was able to overpower the deceased because he was weak.
She revealed that late Usifo became weak after taking three wraps of Rohypnol while she took one wrap. She stated that she strangled Usifo before stabbing him.
Her claim has confirmed the Ataga family’s insinuation that Usifo’s neck was discovered to have been broken during an inspection of his body in the morgue.
Meanwhile, Chidinma had earlier stated that she resorted to stabbing Usifo as a self defence when the late CEO was trying to strangulate her. It is not however clear when the CEO became weak.
