A Lagos High Court sitting at the Tafawa Balewa Square, on Tuesday, resumed the trial of Chidinma Ojukwu, the prime suspect in the murder of the Chief Executive Officer of Super Tv, Usifo Ataga.

Ojukwu, an undergraduate of the University of Lagos, Akoka, was arraigned alongside Adedapo Quadri and Chioma Egbuchu on October, 12, 2021, on nine counts over the alleged murder of Ataga.

Ojukwu in a video played by Justice Yetunde Adesanya, made a U-turn on her previous ‘confession’ of stabbing Ataga in the neck, ribs and stomach.

She also denied knowing who killed Ataga as she had gone out on the day of the incident.

Adding that she found his corpse on the floor when she came back, and immediately packed her property and left because she was scared.

In the video played on Tuesday, Ojukwu was asked why she denied knowing the deceased during interrogation.

She said she did not deny knowing him but that she did not kill him.

Ojukwu said, “I don’t know who came in after I left the room. When I came back, I saw him bleeding.

“I had to leave because I was scared, I did not kill him, I don’t know who killed him.”

She said she couldn’t call for help when she saw him in a pool of blood because she was scared, noting that she also picked the deceased’s two iPhones and Macbook, which were among her things before she left.

She further said the deceased ordered the Loud smoke and Rophynol.
The case was adjourned till October 20, for the continuation of trial.
