PHOTOS: Alleged killer of Super TV CEO, Chidinma, crowned Miss Cell 2022

Chidinma Ojukwu, the alleged killer of Chief Executive Officer of Super TV, Usifo Ataga, has been crowned as Miss Cell 2022.

The suspect, who is standing trial before a Lagos High Court sitting at the Tafawa Balewa Square, won the beauty pageant held at the Kirikiri correctional facility to mark the 2022 International Women’s Day.

Other female inmates also participated in the beauty pageant tagged, Miss Cell 2022.

It would be recalled that the late Super TV CEO was killed on June 15, 2021, at a shortlet apartment in the Lekki area of Lagos State where he was reportedly spending a weekend with his lover, Chidinma Ojukwu.

Chidinma, a student of the University of Lagos (UNILAG), had earlier confessed to have stabbed the late Super TV CEO to death before stealing his belongings but later refuted her statement claiming she returned from an errand to find him lying in a pool of his blood.

Chidinma confessed to stabbing the Super TV CEO with a knife under the influence of alcohol and withdrawing N380,000 from the victim’s account with his ATM card.

The UNILAG undergraduate, however, backtracked later in a video, exonerating herself from the murder.

The prime suspect in the murder of the Super TV CEO, who was charged before a Lagos High Court with murder, stealing and forgery alongside one Adedapo Quadri, were alleged to have conspired and murdered Ataga on June 15, 2021, by stabbing him several times with a knife in the neck and chest.

Usifo, aged 50, was, however, buried on July 30, 2021, in Lagos State.
