Ever since a video emerged on Facebook showing late Chuks
Okebata and his wife engaged in a war of words after which
she called the cops on him, people have been accusing
Chuks' wife of having a hand in his death.
Chuks' wife has reacted to the damaging videos making the
rounds by telling her side of the story.
According to her, she
called the cops on her husband for her own safety because
Chuks constantly subjected her to physical abuse.
Read her story as told to Amanda Chisom below;
"My own side of the story
Amanda , I once came to you about my husband and his
incessant abuse and cheating. Yes I am the wife of the man
who was assassinated, and I am just distraught. I do not
even know where to start but it is only right I tell my own side
of the story. I am innocent, God is my witness that I did not
kill my husband or the evil that my husband’s family is
portraying me to be, yes my sister in-law posted that video to
make me look evil but the part she did not tell anybody was
that I was calling the police to save me because he always
beat me up and I was told to call the police whenever he
started and that was exactly what I was doing, from the video
you would see that I did not fight him or answered him.
Should I have allowed him to kill me?
Amanda, we have been married for 13 years since I was 19, it
has been beating upon beating, I have gone through surgeries
because of beating he gave me. How can I kill my husband,
we live together, till the day he left for Nigeria, I packed his
things , how could I kill him. Who do I know to order a hit on
the father of my children? I have no interest in his properties
as suggested after all we built every thing together. God
knows I am innocent. He went to Nigeria and was going to
club spraying dollars and showing off, revealing his locations .
They want to pin my husband’s death on me, my husband
was not assassinated. He was kidnapped, because he is a
military man he is always with a gun and when he shot to
death one of thekidnappers,they shot him. Why is my family
leaving out information about what happened and pinning it
on me?
I never threatened him to kill him, I am a working woman
with a paying job and have no reason to kill him because of
properties . All I just want is peace to mourn and raise my
children. You can confirm my story from those people in my
home town. My husband was careless in a country with high
rate of crime and was kidnapped, if he had not shot one of
the robbers all we would have been talking about is paying
ransom not death. Amanda why would I kill the father of my
kids, why would I choose his death over a divorce if things
were that bad. I have two boys, who will help me raise them?
I am completely innocent of all the allegations. I have
endured all this years through his beating and cheating and I
did not leave or kill him, why would I do it now? All I ask is
that I am left to mourn in peace and the killers found and
prosecuted.
Nne biko help me
I’m an innocent victim here
I love my husband and I’m still in tears
I’m mourning him and people are accusing them wrongly.My
children are crying daily."
In another Facebook post, Amanda Chisom confirmed that
the widow of Chuks Okebata indeed shared evidence with her
last year that her husband was cheating on her openly and
also abused her physically. In one, Chuks admitted to
cheating on his wife and said he looked outside because he
was never satisfied by his wife at home.

of Facebook comments by the man admitting that he was
cheating on his wife.
