A domestic worker of Aribemchukwu, the daughter of Justice Rita Ofili-Ajumogobia, has spoken out on how she was murdered, a police source has revealed .
Aribemchukwu, known as Chuchu, was killed in her Parkview Estate residence in Ikoyi, Lagos State.
Although a family source indicated she was murdered on Tuesday night, her body was discovered outside the gate of her residence on Wednesday morning.
Three domestic workers, including the house help, a security guard, and a driver, were arrested in connection with the murder.
Providing updates on the investigation, a police source, who requested anonymity, disclosed to The PUNCH that the house help confessed to the crime during interrogation.
The source clarified that Aribemchukwu was murdered in her room and her body was later dragged outside the gate to make it appear she was killed there.
“The deceased was killed in her room, and her body was dragged to the front of the gate to create the impression she was killed on the spot. The suspects attempted to clean up the blood stains but missed some spots because the act occurred at night,” the source said.
During interrogation, the house help admitted to the crime, saying, “We did it, we did it,” which matched the evidence found.
The suspects reportedly packed all the valuables of the deceased after killing her.
The source also confirmed that the three domestic workers had been employed only a week before the incident.
Aribemchukwu, a doctor, had recently married before her tragic death.
State Police Public Relations Officer Benjamin Hundeyin said investigations were ongoing and updates would be provided as new developments emerge.
