Peter Nwachukwu, the embattled husband of late gospel singer, Osinachi, has said that she died of lung cancer.
The suspect said this on Friday, June 3, shortly after he was arraigned before a High Court of the Federal Capital Territory on a 23-count charge that bordered on culpable homicide.
The defendant, whose wife allegedly died as a result of prolonged assault by him, pleaded not guilty to all the allegations that were contained in the charge the Federal Government preferred against him.
Following Nwachukwu’s plea of innocence, Justice Njideka Nwosu-Iheme, in a short ruling, ordered his remand at the Kuje Correctional Centre, even as she adjourned the case till June 16 and 17 for trial.
Recall that Osinachi died on April 8, 2022 after spending some time on life support.
