Lawyer calls for lesser sentence for late gospel singer, Osinachi’s husband

An Abuja-based lawyer, Stan Alieke, has called for a lesser sentencing for Peter Nwachukwu, husband of late gospel singer, Osinachi. 

A High court in Lagos today, April 28, sentenced Mr Nwachukwu to death by hanging over the death of his wife.

Nwachukwu was first arraigned on June 3, 2022 on charges bordering on culpable homicide punishable with death, criminal intimidation, cruelty to children, criminal intimidation of children, spousal battery, among others.  

In a post shared on Instastories, Alieke argued that life imprisonment should have been better than death sentence considering they still have children to be cater for.
