The mutilated body of Abuja-based businesswoman, Charity Aiyedogbon, who went missing from her Gwarinpa residence in Abuja, has been found, sources say.
The 42-year-old, popularly known by her friends as Deepdeal Chacha Dehammer, was reported missing on the 9th of May, 2016 when a post announcing that she was going on a road trip suddenly surfaced on her Facebook page.
A social media campaign was thereafter launched by friends and well-wishers, with some opening a Facebook page, called “Find Deepdeal Chacha Dehammer.”
According to reports that recently emerged, the decomposed and mutilated body of the mother of four was found by school children playing close to the Bwari Expressway, Dutse, Abuja, opposite the Lower Usman Dam on the 12th of May, just days after she was reported missing. But the body was not, however, identified as Aiyegbodon’s until now.
Emeka Ugwuwonye, the lawyer who led the campaign for her search, affirmed that the body was “identified to a reasonable degree of legal certainty” to be hers.
“Thank you all for your concerns about the revelations I have made on this case. But to put your minds at rest, Chacha’s body has been discovered and it has been identified to a reasonable degree of legal certainty. Nigerian police actually got Chacha’s body within a day or two after she was brutally murdered, but they were too incompetent and dysfunctional to identify the body. Besides, at that time, nobody had reported Chacha missing. It took about 10 days after her murder before there was any serious concern that she was missing. If you want to know the exact time line of Chacha’s death, it was shortly before that moment that status update was posted on her wall that she she was going on a road trip.
“Once it was confirmed to him that the job was done and that she had been killed, the person who all along had Chacha’s FB password made a status update on her wall saying that she was on a road trip. That post served so many purposes. First, it was to conceal the fact that Chacha was missing. It was to create a temporary excuse for Chacha’s silence and lack of contact with her friends. Second, by delaying the moment her disappearance would be discovered, it also gave the killers time to dispose of the body. We believe she was killed in the city at night and her body disposed of the following night.
“She was not killed at the spot or near the spot where her body was found. Also, evidence suggests that her body was not cut up until nearly 24 hours after she was killed. The killers thought that they were clever. But they are amateurs. They left too many clues.
“I have received calls and messages from very few people who said: Let’s wait to confirm that she is really dead. One even told me that I needed to delay and wait for more confirmation in order to avoid risks to my reputation in case it turns out that she is alive. That is a very twisted and poor manner to view these things. I asked the person: if she is not dead, where do you think she is? Hiding somewhere in the bushes? Or sitting somewhere tied up by some confused kidnappers who don’t know how to demand for ransom.
“Now, let us consider the scenarios under which Chacha could show up alive and I would be shamed. If the person I accused of killing her has only been holding her hostage and he decides to release her in order to shame me by showing she is alive while I said she was dead, how does that hurt me? I will be happy my statements forced him to release her. If Chacha has been hiding in the Abuja jungles and she decides to come out of hiding in order for me to be proven to have lied, that is to my advantage, as it means my ‘false’ statements forced her to come out of hiding. On the other hand, if she resurrects from death and shows up just in order to prove me wrong, I will be happy. So, I am really not perturbed about the possibility that I could be proven wrong. On the contrary, I am praying to be proven wrong. As I told one guy who expressed these fears to me yesterday, I am not a journalist that simply wants to report a story or an outcome. I am a lawyer fighting to create or achieve the just outcome. so, I will leave others to live in the fantasy island where it will be okay to believe that Chacha is still alive wondering in the shrubs around Abuja.”
Hmmm but her daughter still insists her mother is still alive based on her ‘evidence’ and challenges anyone to present a DNA result showing the body found is actually her mom
We are not sure yet it’s her body Emeka should have chilled a little before bringing this pictures out. I just pray she’s still alive because this woman suffered a great deal in the hands of her husband and family and even kids. Her daughter was the number one person to sell her out to the father. If truly she’s dead, her blood is on their hands. I read her stories from beginning to end as told by her (chacha). I pray the husband doesn’t go scot free because he is evil and should pay for his evil deeds.
This is huge, i can’t even deal.
The daughter says its not her mum’s body
I pray it’s not her body. The heart of men are deadly wicked,how can somebody use matchet or whatever to pieces a fellow human being,God forbid.
Oh my God! What is this? What has she done to deserve such pay back? No matter what, this is too much.
OMG!!!!This is Heartbreaking
