The State Criminal Investigative and Intelligence Department (SCIID) Panti yesterday brought criminal charges against Chidinma’s father, Mr. Onoh Ojukwu and four others.

They were arraigned before a Yaba Chief Magistrates court, for alleged obstruction of justice and failing to report a crime to the law enforcement agencies.

Ojukwu, 57, and Babalola Disu, 42, were charged with obstructing the police from performing their duties and failing to report a crime to the police.

The other three defendants, Jessica Egbochi, 28; Abayomi Olutayo, 23; and Ifeoluwa Olowu, 23, were accused of dishonestly receiving stolen items.

They pleaded not guilty to the charges.

Prosecution counsel, Cyril Ejiofor, alleged the defendants committed the offences on June 18 and 23, at Computer Village, Ikeja, and Alagomeji, Yaba.

He alleged that Ojukwu prevented the police from arresting his daughter, Chidinma.

The counsel said the second defendant, Disu, failed to report Ataga’s death to the police.

According to Ejiofor, the other three defendants dishonestly received a MacBook valued at N2.5 million and an IPhone 7 worth N150, 000 belonging to the deceased.

The court heard that the offences contravened Sections 97, 117, 328 and 411 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State, 2015.

Chief Magistrate Adedayo admitted each defendant to bail to the tune of N1 million with two sureties each in the like sum, which must make a deposit of N20, 000 into the coffers of the chief registrar.

She adjourned till September 6 for mention.

May we never born a bikin wey go disgrace his or herself includes families too

What she did was despicable! Her parents did what the despot in Aso Rock is doing for the killer herdsmen!

Chidinma means God is good... This stupid girl has decided to drag this beautiful name in the mud


Let her be sentenced asap and stop making her a celebrity

Meanwhile her father was only propelled by fatherly instincts

Stop beating around the bush with these charges and get concrete evidence to nail the main culprit who is now a celebrity inmate

So sad

For those of you wondering...obstructing the police in the course of their duties or helping to hide crimes from the police is a criminal offence

Ok

After initial gragra. May we never be popular for the wrong reasons

I believe the Father did what every father would do, because he wouldn’t have believed that he’s little princess is a she devil �.

Just like me, if you tell my father I’m a hardcore smoker he will definitely fight you because I’m a good boy at home

I can bet my left balls that they will continue to adjourn the case till she vanishes just like Evans saga. #Spits The future is transgendered

Let Justice Prevails

I develop web apps and android/ios apps from a stockbroker to Courier to any apps delivery is within 1 week for small projects. And I write assignments and projects. 70. 59. 0. 11. 222

Y'all no dey sleep again...

The man is not to blame

Him no know say na slay queen him born and with the innocent face wey the girl get, me self go prevent her from being arrested

But this justifies the saying that all that glitters ain't gold

A big lesson

Eyia

Dizammmnnn

Good,serves them right. I know as parents they will stand by their child no matter what,but the best they can do is to hire a good lawyer and let the court decide if she's guilty or innocent based on evidences presented by the prosecutor.

Let justice prevail.

Judge her once and for all

Nigeria will never change

If Messi can leave Barcelona wetin no fit happen again

Imagine

This keeps getting serious

What's disturbing is the celebrity status they are granting this killer.

Okay

Free the father

THE POLICE WILL FIND IT VERY DIFFICULT TO PROVE THE INTENTION (MENS REA) OF THE OFFENCE OF OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE PURPORTEDLY COMMITTED BY CHIDINMA'S FATHER. IT WAS CLEAR THAT THE MAN HAD NO REASON TO BELIEVE THAT HIS DAUGHTER HAD COMMITTED AN OFFENCE SERIOUS ENOUGH TO BE ARRESTED LATE EVENING. OR DO THEY EXPECT THE MAN TO FOLD HIS HAND WHILE HIS ONLY DAUGHTER WAS BEING WHISKED AWAY BY 10PM IN THIS ERA OF INSECURITIES? THEY ARE WASTING THEIR TIME.
