There is a dramatic twist to the story of a Nigerian-born US Army officer who was brutally assassinated by gunmen in Imo state.
Nigerian-US army officer, Chuks Okebata
Ada Mbaeri, sister to the Nigerian-US army officer, Chuks Okebata who was brutally
murdered by unknown gunmen in Imo state after he came back to enjoy the Christmas has shared touching videos of how marriage problems could have led to his death.
The heartwrenching videos shows the extent of problem the man had with the wife in the United states of America with many speculating that the wife might have hired assassins to kill the husband in Nigeria.
Okebata came back home for Christmas after he finished building his mansion in his hometown and was abducted and killed in Imo State.
However, the wife accused of killing her husband has responded with her own side of the story, writing to Amanda Chisom.
She wrote:
"My own side of the story
Amanda , I once came to you about my husband and his incessant abuse and cheating. Yes I am the wife of the man who was assassinated, and I am just distraught. I do not even know where to start but it is only right I tell my own side of the story. I am innocent, God is my witness that I did not kill my husband or the evil that my husband’s family is portraying me to be, yes my sister in-law posted that video to make me look evil but the part she did not tell anybody was that I was calling the police to save me because he always beat me up and I was told to call the police whenever he started and that was exactly what I was doing, from the video you would see that I did not fight him or answered him. Should I have allowed him to kill me?
Amanda, we have been married for 13 years since I was 19, it has been beating upon beating, I have gone through surgeries because of beating he gave me. How can I kill my husband, we live together, till the day he left for Nigeria, I packed his things , how could I kill him. Who do I know to order a hit on the father of my children? I have no interest in his properties as suggested after all we built every thing together. God knows I am innocent. He went to Nigeria and was going to club spraying dollars and showing off, revealing his locations . They want to pin my husband’s death on me, my husband was not assassinated. He was kidnapped, because he is a military man he is always with a gun and when he shot to death one of the kidnappers, they shot him. Why is my family leaving out information about what happened and pinning it on me?
I never threatened him to kill him, I am a working woman with a paying job and have no reason to kill him because of properties . All I just want is peace to mourn and raise my children. You can confirm my story from those people in my home town. My husband was careless in a country with high rate of crime and was kidnapped, if he had not shot one of the robbers all we would have been talking about is paying ransom not death. Amanda why would I kill the father of my kids, why would I choose his death over a divorce if things were that bad. I have two boys, who will help me raise them? I am completely innocent of all the allegations. I have endured all this years through his beating and cheating and I did not leave or kill him, why would I do it now? All I ask is that I am left to mourn in peace and the killers found and prosecuted.
Nne biko help me
I’m an innocent victim here.
I love my husband and I’m still in tears.
I’m mourning him and people are accusing them wrongly. My children are crying daily."
However, with the video evidence coming after the man's murder and what happened in the United states, all fingers are pointing at the woman, many believe might have desperately needed to silent the man that she did what she had to do.
