One Chudi has been mandated to pay the sum of N800,000 as bride price to marry a dead woman whom he was reported to have been cohabited without paying her bride price until her death.
It was reported that Chudi and the lady known as Ginika were living together as husband and wife in Lagos without properly engagement’ in marriage before she died in his custody.
The embattled Chudi has agreed to paythe said N800,000 to the family of the deceased as part of the marriage rites including her bride price before the corpse will be buried.
Ginika’s family we gathered initially insisted on collecting N5 million, but after much pleading the parties arrived at N800,000 as an agreement reached by both families as a way of settling the matter with the police before Chudi was granted administrative bail to travel for the marriage proposal to the corpse of the lady.
Chudi has been living with the late Ginika as his wife without paying her bride price and the consent of her family at Idimu, Lagos and they had two kids before she died at an undisclosed private hospital where she went to deliver her third baby.
Chudi we gathered went to her family to report the death but was arrested and handed over to the police for abduction and suspected murder.
The deceased family according to information disclosed to Inside Sources filled a petition at Area M Police Command, Idimu alleging that Chudi abducted late Ginika some years ago and hid her from the family who has been looking for her in those years and discovered that it was Chudi that abducted and killed her.
