A few days ago, the Lagos Police
paraded a 21 year-old Chidinma Adaora
Ojukwu, a part-time student of the Mass Communication Department,
University of Lagos as the prime suspect in the murder of Michael Usifo Ataga,
the CEO of Super TV. We gathered that as the photographs of Chidinma were
shared on the internet, the photos of Usifo Ataga’s wife, Brenda, also surfaced, orchestrating some puzzles on man-woman
relationship and in this case, a fatal attraction. It is obvious that Brenda is
a beautiful woman, a celebrated professional in the oil and gas sector and the
mother of Ataga’s two children. Some confusions are the reason for Ataga to run
after a side chick, that is not as charming as his wife is. Only Usifo Ataga knows
the reason. We can only guess, since he is no longer in this world. But if he was
alive, he must have borne great shame for the public embarrassment and pain his
infidelity has brought his wife and children.
According to Brenda’s bio, she works
as the National Project Coordinator of the LPG Gas Expansion Programme, in the
office of the Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, Timipre Sylva. She had previously served as the Special Adviser on
Downstream and Infrastructure between 2015 and 2019 to another Minister of
State, Emmanuel Kachikwu. She is a Mid/Downstream
Commercial Strategist and a 2018 Nominee of the prestigious Arch Bishop Desmond
Tutu Fellowship. She has over 15 years of experience in the Oil and Gas
industry. Brenda founded the NGO – True Foundation – which focuses on community
and human capacity training for Women and Youths. She holds a Bachelor of Arts
in Public Administration from the University of Lagos, BA Business Management
from Lincoln University and an LLM from the University of Salford. Before
joining public service, Brenda held key leadership positions in private sector,
where she attained recognition as the first female and first under 30 to serve
in the capacity of Supply Manager at OANDO
PLC (West Africa).
As much as we pity Chidinma Ojukwu
owing to the fact that her life seems wasted at 21, this is horribly sad, so
sad. Many people are in sorrow, especially the families of the dead as well as
the lady's parents. Only God knows what all of them are going through. Parents
need to add more effort in how they train their kids these days. Money is not
everything!!! We must not all be wealthy and rich but we must all be
responsible and noble. They should ensure that their kids understand this while
bringing them up. The upcoming young minds need serious vigilance and prayers. This
whole thing about the CEO and the young girl is sad, horribly sad.
