However, signs of an attempt to clean up blood inside the house and in the compound tell a different story.”

The Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), Benjamin Hundeyin, confirmed that three domestic staff members have been arrested in connection with Chukwu’s death.

“Three domestic staff have been arrested and handed over to the State Criminal Investigation Department, which has since taken over the investigation. Chukwu, daughter of Justice Offili-Ajumogobia, was found lifeless this morning at about 6:45 am at the entrance of her parents’ house on Bembe Street in Parkview Estate, Lagos,” Hundeyin disclosed.

He added that the arrests were made following a directive from the Commissioner of Police to conduct a thorough investigation into the death.

As the investigation unfolds, more details are expected to emerge. This is a developing story, and updates will be provided as they become available.
