Justice Ajumogobia’s daughter murdered in her Ikoyi residence
Aribemchukwu, the daughter of Justice Rita Ofili-Ajumogobia, has been killed.
The decease popularly known as Chuchu, was reportedly killed in her Parkview Estate residence in the Ikoyi area of Lagos State on Wednesday morning.
A family source who craved anonymity said she was killed last night, and her body was discovered this morning outside the gate of her residence.
“It would appear that new household staff might have been responsible and tried to stage as if she was outside when it happened.
“There are signs of an attempt to clean up blood inside the house and in the compound.
This was indeed the handiwork of domestic staff, and we observe that they were newly employed less than a month, and she was alone in the house with them.
“We all need to be super careful, especially with new hire,” he added.
Confirming the murder to journalists on Wednesday, the state command’s spokesperson, SP Benjamin Hundeyin, said the corpse had been recovered, and three suspects, her domestic staff, had been arrested in connection with her death.
“Our men have arrested three people in connection to the murder of the daughter of Justice Ajumogobia at her residence in Parkview Estate.
One of them is a driver, and the other two are maids,” he said.
The body of the decease was discovered outside the gate of their Parkview, Lagos home on Wednesday 31 July.
A sources close to the late Aribemchukwu house said newly employed domestic staff, who had been with the family for less than a month, are suspected to have staged the scene to make it appear as though Aribemchukwu was outside the house when the incident occurred.
Evidence suggests an attempt to clean up her blood inside the house and within the compound.
Aribemchukwu’s father, Soboma Ajumogobia, is the younger brother of Odein Ajumogobia, former Minister of State for Petroleum and later, Minister of Foreign Affairs.
