A 21-year-old undergraduate of the University of Lagos who simply identified herself as Chidinma has narrated how she stabbed the Chief Executive Officer of Super TV, Usifo Ataga, to death in the Lekki area of Lagos State.
She spoke at the Lagos State Police Command headquarters in
Ikeja on Thursday after she was paraded as a suspect by the state Commissioner
of Police, Hakeem Odumosu.
Odumosu said Chidinma was arrested at her parents’ residence
in the Yaba area of the state on Wednesday night.
Chidinma, a 300-level student of Mass Communication, said she had been in a romantic relationship with Ataga for about four months before the ugly incident.
Chidinma said she and Ataga were “having fun” when an
argument broke out and she stabbed him twice.
She said, “We were in the lodge smoking. He was trying to
make advances on me. I was tired and he became violent on it. I let him have
his way. Towards afternoon, he ordered roofies. We took it together and ate
food. He became high. I was still not happy with the first one (sex) that we
had, so, I was staying on my own, smoking and drinking. He, too, was on his
own.
“He came to me and I was
like I am not happy with what he did. I was like, ‘You don’t help me, you don’t
assist me with anything, you are just playing with me around’. He was like,
‘Take my ATM and withdraw what you want’.
“He later became violent trying to get to me and I was
resisting and defending myself. At some point, he hit my head on the wall and I
also retaliated.
“At some point, he was chasing me around the kitchen
cabinet. I took a knife and stabbed his neck. I approached the door and he
followed me. I stabbed him twice on the neck side. I threw the knife to the bed
and he was going for it but I also went for it. He dragged the knife with me
and it broke and he fell on the floor.”
The undergraduate also disclosed that after stabbing the
late CEO, she withdrew N380,000 from his account using his ATM card.
While the owner of the rented apartment where the tragic
incident took place has been arrested, Odumosu also said Ataga’s account has
been blocked to prevent further withdrawals from it by those taking advantage
of his untimely death to deplete the account.
