Incredulous facts about sustained abusive treatment that verged on emotional and physical brutality have emerged to signify the cause of the death of Gospel singer, Osinachi Nwachukwu.
The purveyor of the narrative that has since added a brutish dimesion to the fatal incident is Osinachi’s elder sister, Ms Favour Made.
Made opened up to Vanguard about the serial domestic abuses Osinachi suffered and endured in the hands of her husband, Peter Nwachukwu, until he reportedly gave her a lethal kick in the chest that eventually terminated her life.
Doctors actually found clusters of blood clot in her heart and they failed to save her.
Favour in the Vanguard newspaper interview reeled out the series of inhumane treatment her sister got from her husband.
She debunked earlier news that Osinachi succumbed to throat cancer.
“She did not die of cancer. The husband, Mr Peter Nwachukwu hit her with his leg on the chest. All this while, he has been beating her but my sister hides all that she was passing through from us,” Favour Made said.
“Before now, we have told her to come out of the marriage, we told her that they are not divorcing and that it’s just a separation. But she felt that God is against divorce.
“We told her that separation is not a sin but just for her to stay alive and take care of her children. She will always tell us to relax and that the man will change.
“So when the man kicked her in the chest, she fell down and he took her to the hospital but he did not even tell us.
“It was her friend who lives in Ebonyi state that called her twin sister because Osinachi has a twin sister, to ask, ‘did your Sister tell you that Peter hit her on the chest? the sister then told her no.
“My brother had to ask the doctor what killed her and the doctor said that there were clusters of blood clot on her chest.
“Unfortunately, they did not tell the doctor that she was kicked in the chest because the doctor could have known what to do if he had an idea of what happened.
“Each time we talked to her, she will be pleading for peace and if we move to act, she will tell us no, that we should calm down.”
Osinachi and her husband were living in Abuja, where she died. The marriage produced three boys and one girl.
According to Favour Made, Osinachi and Peter met during one of her ministrations.
“Nwachukwu saw how my sister was ministering, he then fell in love with her,” she said. Favour also revealed that Peter has not been arrested.
“My younger brother who had gone to see the children said Nwachukwu is not arrested, he is in his house in Abuja. When my brother got there, the children were so happy to see him and they told him that they want to come and see their grandmother who is my mother.
In a related development, Peter Nwachukwu, the husband of late popular gospel artiste, Osinachi, has been arrested by the police for the death of his wife by the Police in Lugbe, Abuja.
