As reported by The Punch, a family source who pleaded anonymity disclosed that Chuchu was killed last night, and her body was discovered this morning outside the gate of her residence.
As reported by Vanguard, the family source added that the newly employed domestic staff, who had been with the family for less than a month, are suspected to have staged the scene to make it appear as though Aribemchukwu was outside the house when the incident occurred.
Evidence suggests an attempt to clean up blood inside the house and within the compound, pointing to a different narrative, the source noted.
“It would appear that new household staff might have been responsible and tried to stage as if she was outside when it happened.
“There are signs of an attempt to clean up blood inside the house and in the compound. This was indeed the handiwork, and we observe that they were newly employed less than a month, and she was alone in the house with them.
“We all need to be super careful. Especially with new hire,” he added.
