The Lagos Statw Police Command has reacted to the new position of Chidinma Ojukwu after the murder suspect denied killing Super TV boss Usifo Ataga despite admitting guilt initially.
In a trending video interview conducted by Crime Fighters, the 21-year-old claimed that she found Ataga’s corpse after returning to the service apartment where both of them lodged at Lekki, Lagos State.
Ojukwu said she went to buy food and hard drugs and that when she returned she found Ataga in a pool of blood and the duvet was stained with blood.
“I don’t know who must have come into the apartment, and did that… I don’t know who that person is. I don’t know what happened when I went to buy the food. I did not kill him,” she said.
Ojukwu said she initially took the blame because she did not alert the police and instead withdrew N200,000 not N5 million from Ataga’s account using his ATM card.
But reacting yesterday, the state police commissioner Hakeem Odumosu said, “That is the trait of an active criminal; she was here, we recorded her.
“The night she was arrested, we recorded her at the state CIID, even the lady that rented the place to her, we recorded her and we have all that. If she now has an afterthought, investigation will prove that.”
