Chidinma Ojukwu, a 300-level Mass Communication student of the University of Lagos, the prime suspect in the murder of the Super TV Chief Executive Officer, Usifo Ataga, has pleaded not guilty to the charge.
Chidinma, 22-year-old, pleaded not guilty to the crime on Tuesday alongside one Adedapo Quadri. They are both alleged as the key suspects in the murder case.
The duo were arraigned before Justice Yetunde Adesanya of the Lagos State High Court sitting at the Tafawa Balewa Square.
They both pleaded not guilty to the eight counts bordering on the offences of murder, forgery and stealing.
The two were arraigned alongside Chidinma’s sister, Egbuchu Chioma from whom the late Ataga’s iPhone 7, was said to have been recovered.
Chioma, however, pleaded not guilty to the 9th count of being in possession of the stolen property.
The suspects are being prosecuted by the Lagos State Department of Public Prosecution, Mrs Olayinka Adeyemi.
