A police source has exclusively revealed that one of the domestic workers of Aribemchukwu, the slain daughter of Justice Rita Ofili-Ajumogobia, has confessed to being involved in her murder.
Aribemchukwu, a doctor who had recently married, was found dead outside the gate of her Parkview Estate residence in Ikoyi, Lagos State, on Wednesday morning.
According to the police source, the domestic worker, who was one of three employees arrested in connection with the murder, admitted to the crime during interrogation.
The source stated that the deceased was killed in her room, and her body was then dragged to the front gate to make it appear as though she was killed there.
The suspects attempted to clean up the blood stains but missed some spots due to the darkness as the incident occured at night
The police source revealed that the house help confessed, saying, “We do am, na we do am” (meaning “We did it, we did it”), and her statement matched the evidence found at the scene.
The suspects had also packed all of the deceased’s valuables after killing her.
The three domestic workers, including the house help, security guard, and driver, were employed at the same time just a week before the incident.
The state Police Public Relations Officer, Benjamin Hundeyin, confirmed that investigations are ongoing and promised to provide updates as soon as more developments emerge.
