Osinachi’s Death: Real Reason Ekwueme Singer Refused To Divorce her Husband Revealed

A brother of late gospel singer, Osinachi Nwachukwu, Chiemerie, has disclosed why the late singer refused to divorce her husband, Peter Nwachukwu.
Chiemerie said the Ekwueme singer opted to stay in the abusive marriage due to how her followers would perceive her.
He said she was trying to avoid people from describing her as a divorced minister.
Chiemerie accused Nwachukwu of killing the singer slowly.
Speaking with newsmen, Chiemerie said: “I know Osinachi very well. She is very quiet and God-fearing. She was going through all these and she refused to tell me because I would have known what to do.
“She was just hiding all these things so people will not talk about her and say she is divorced. So, the man was dealing with her and she was dying slowly.”

The gospel singer gave up the ghost on April 8 at the National Hospital in Abuja, where she was being treated for alleged throat cancer.
However, there are claims that Osinachi died as a result of lingering domestic violence she suffered from her husband.

The Lagos State Government has given traders at the popular Computer Village in Ikeja an 18-month deadline to move to a new permanent site at Katangowa, in the Agbado/Oke-Odo Local Council Development Area.
The Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Physical Planning and Urban Development, Gbolahan Oki, disclosed this during a stakeholders’ engagement with market leaders and traders on Tuesday.

“The government wants your cooperation to ensure the relocation comes to pass. The time is now. We have to make the project a reality. The relocation period is 18 months,” Oki said.
He explained that Computer Village currently sits on land originally designated as a residential area, which over time was converted into a bustling commercial hub without formal approval from the government.
Oki also revealed that plans to move traders from Ikeja to Katangowa have been in the works since 2006 but were stalled due to delays in completing the new site.

“The governor is passionate about infrastructure development and the welfare of Lagosians. Katangowa has been designated as the permanent site for this market. It sits on 15 hectares of land, well-planned and strategically located near essential resources for your businesses.
“The present location in Ikeja was never meant to serve as a trading hub. What we are offering at Katangowa is a structured market environment that supports growth while addressing environmental and urban planning concerns. We want to work with you and jointly plan this relocation,” Oki said.
