The court found Nwachukwu guilty after the prosecution, led by the Office of the Attorney-General of themedia, successfully proved its case. Nwachukwu was arraigned on June 3, 2022, on a 23-count charge, including culpable homicide punishable by death, criminal intimidation, cruelty to children, and spousal battery.


During the trial, the prosecution presented 17 witnesses, including two of Osinachi’s children, who testified as the fourth and fifth prosecution witnesses, and tendered 25 documents as exhibits. Nwachukwu testified in his defense, called four additional witnesses, and submitted four exhibits.


Before sentencing, Nwachukwu’s counsel, Reginald Nwali, pleaded for leniency, while prosecuting counsel, Mrs. Aderonke Imala, urged the court to uphold the law. Justice Nwosu-Iheme sentenced Nwachukwu to death by hanging on the first count of culpable homicide. Additionally, he received two-year imprisonment terms for each of seven other counts, a six-month term for one count, a three-year term for another, and fines of N500,000 and N200,000 for two counts.
