Did This Lady Poison Her Boss With Apple? Read Her Story
Life for 23-year-old Oluchi Obi in the last three months has been one tough journey of suffering...
An Imo State indigene, Obi just wanted to make a living as a housemaid
when she got lucky and got a job through an agent in the Ajah area of
Lagos.“All I needed to do was to take care of the household and the man’s three children,” she said.
Obi’s boss, 47-year-old Frank Ikoh, was said to be ill at the time while his siblings were also on hand to take care of him in the house...
They said they just needed the housemaid to take care of the children and other chores in the house.
But that seemingly simple job would later land Obi in detention for 39 days on accusation that she was the one who murdered her boss with a poisoned apple barely one month after she got to the house.
The late Mr Ikoh, who lived with his children in VGC, Ajah, was said to have separated from his ex-wife, Nkechi Nnadi, six years earlier.
The family lawyer said he was down with an illness, which gave him recurrent headache even before Obi was employed as a housemaid.
Obi said apart from her, the man’s sister and brother were also living in the house and taking care of him.
But on December 28, Mr Ikoh passed away.
According to Punch, the family lawyer, Mr. Courage Erhuen, said on January 12, two weeks after Ikoh’s death, a team of policemen with the deceased’s ex-wife in tow, invaded the house and shot teargas into the compound “under the guise of effecting an arrest of a suspect for the murder of our client.”
That day, Obi was arrested by the police, while the ex-wife allegedly marched into Ikoh’s bedroom with the assistance of policemen and took possession of a safe, which the family lawyer said contained Ikoh’s personal effects and vital documents.
Obi said the day she was arrested, she was preparing the children for school when the policemen came.
“Everywhere was filled with teargas. Everybody, including the children and oga’s (Ikoh’s) siblings, was coughing badly. So, we had to move out. I was shocked when the policemen mentioned my name and said they were looking for me. They took me into custody and the woman took her children away that day,” she said.
According to Obi, she was told when she was locked up at the State Criminal Investigation Department that a petition had been filed by the man's ex-wife Nkechi, who alleged that she was the one who gave her ex-husband a poisoned apple before he died.
Obi said, “I had never seen her before until that day. I was shocked and did not know why she would make such an allegation against me when she had not even met me before.
“I told the police that I had never brought apple to the house. Apart from that, the man had been sick before I was employed. The man was not even the kind of a person who collected anything to eat from people anyhow. How could he possibly have collected apple from me?
“The woman told the police that somebody must have given me the poisoned apple to feed to him. She told them that the report she got was that the children even wanted to eat part of the apple but that I refused. I don’t know what brought about those lies.
“I told them all these, yet, they detained me in their terrible cell for almost six weeks. They said until they determined what really killed the man, they would not free me. I was in the house with the man’s brother and sister and they all knew I had nothing to do with his death, yet the police acted only on what the woman told them.”
Mr Erhuen, who is now representing Obi along with the Ikoh family, said he was surprised that the police could just arrest people based on an unfounded report from someone who has no evidence of crime and lock the suspect up for six weeks.
While Obi was in custody at the SCID, the report of the autopsy invalidating any claim of foul play in the death of the man came out but yet, they did not release the young woman until the intervention by a former NDDC director effected her release.
AUTOPSY RESULT
A copy of the result of the autopsy conducted on the deceased’s body at the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital, which was signed by one Dr. Mgbehoma Ikenna, showed the primary cause of death as “acute left ventricular failure” while the secondary cause was identified as “hypertensive heart disease”.
On January 28, the late Ikoh’s lawyer, filed a petition at the office of the Assistant Inspector-General of Police calling for the release of Obi and the personal property of the late Ikoh carted away by the police on the orders of the wife. Again on February 22, another petition was sent to the office of the Deputy Commissioner of Police, SCID, Yaba.
Mr Erhuen said no action was taken on the matter on both times. Apart from demanding the release of the belongings of Ikoh reportedly taken away, the lawyer is calling on police authorities to take necessary action to remedy the untold hardship brought against the lady as a result of the false accusation against her.
“The police and the ex-wife openly boasted that they were well connected within the corridors of power at the police high command. When they invaded the house, the deceased’s siblings and relatives tried to stop them from taking the man’s safe away, but the police descended on them and beat them up,” he said.
Attempts to get hold of the deceased’s ex-wife have been abortive as an individual who picked her phone said she did not know anyone by that name.
The lawyer said he had approached the Lagos State High Court, to seek the release of the personal properties of the deceased taken away by the police. He also said he would be demanding the sum of N10m as compensation from the police for the unlawful detention of the young lady.

Court Orders Documents on British Police Corruption released to Ibori
A British Crown Court has ordered the immediate release of documents and other materials uncovered by James Ibori's former solicitor Gohil Bhadresh suggesting that British Metropolitan Police Officers investigating James Ibori, fraudulently obtained materials and documents against Gohil Bhardesh and James Ibori.
A press statement from Tony Eluemunor, Chief Ibori’s Media
Assistant, said that His Honour Judge Tester of Southwark Crown Court on Friday
directed the prosecution to comply with his order made on January 21st this
year and release to James Ibori's counsels the documents. The prosecution had
initially refused to release the documents and other materials which suggested
police involvement in corruption and fraud in the James Ibori's and Gohil Bhadresh's
case.
This order followed the dramatic turn of event in the case
brought by the Crown Prosecution against Gohil accusing him of attempt to
pervert the course of justice but which the crown prosecution dropped following
damaging and incriminating documents uncovered by Gohil Bhadresh which the
Prosecution had lied ever existed.
The allegations of corruption and documents suggesting
thousands of pound sterling were paid into the bank account of the
investigating police officers involved in the case and attempt by both the
crown prosecution and the British Police to cover up this grave misconducts
have greatly damaged the credibility of materials and documents relied upon by
the crown and police in this case. Subsequently, all the crown prosecutors and
police officers handling the case have been removed from the case.
According to the statement, a new vista has opened in the
Ibori London trial, as James Ibori's former solicitor, Gohil Bhadresh has
approached the court of appeal to quash his conviction because the Police and
the crown prosecution may have misled the court and have been neck deep in corruption.
This new development may totally change this whole case as the new documents
suggesting Police misconduct in the handling of the case may mean the last has
not been heard in James Ibori's trial in London.

Appeal Court upholds Ibinabo Fiberesima's five year jail term
The case went to court and the Igbosere magistrate court sentenced her to five years in prison with an option of N100k fine. Ibinabo apologized to the man's family, paid the N100k fine and thought the case was over but the Lagos state government objected to the fine and took the case to a high court...
The High Court then said that the Magistrate court was reckless when they gave Ibinabo an option of fine for such an offence. The High court judge tossed out the N100k option and sentenced Ibinabo to five years in prison, saying that such an offence - reckless and dangerous driving which causes another person's death is liable to 7 years in prison. Ibinabo's N100k was subsequently given back to her.
So she and her lawyers took the case to court of Appeal, asking the court of appeal, Lagos Division, to set aside the prison sentence and restore the sentence she received from the magistrate court (N100k) but unfortunately, at the judgement that took place today March 11th, the court upheld the high court ruling and dismissed Ibinabo's appeal, saying it lacked merit.
Ibinabo was in court today and reportedly wept when judgment was passed. She and her lawyers are now heading to the Supreme court to appeal. If they fail at the Supreme Court, the AGN president will be spending the next few years in prison.
