Richard Somiari, the 11th prosecution witness in the murder trial of Chidinma Ojukwu, testified that the DNA blood sample found on the accused’s red dress matched that of the victim, Usifo Ataga.

Somiari, a director and consultant at the Lagos State DNA and Forensic Centre, has 15 years of experience in forensics and has conducted over 500 forensic tests.

The evidence triangle aims to link the suspect to the crime scene and the victim, with the DNA on the red dress matching that of Ataga.

However, Ojukwu’s DNA did not match that of the other suspects, Babalola Disu and Oluwatomi Dada.
