The Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Police Command has arraigned three suspects before the FCT High Court 13 over the alleged murder of Adimike Godwin in the Guzape area of Abuja.
The defendants — Adimike Odirachukwu Anthony, Adimike Chinyere Stephany and Comfort Ajibade — appeared before the court on a four-count charge bordering on alleged criminal conspiracy, culpable homicide and offences under the Same Sex Marriage (Prohibition) Act.
In a statement issued on Monday, the FCT Police Public Relations Officer, SP Josephine Adeh, said the court ordered that the three suspects be remanded at the Suleja Correctional Centre pending further hearing.
According to the police, the deceased was found with multiple stab wounds in his residence on May 15, 2026, after officers responded to a distress call from a relative who became concerned after repeated attempts to contact him were unsuccessful.
The statement said detectives from the Guzape Divisional Headquarters arrived at the scene and found the victim unconscious in his room. He was taken to Karu General Hospital, where he was confirmed dead by medical personnel.
The police said the Commissioner of Police, FCT Command, CP Ahmed Muhammed Sanusi, directed a comprehensive investigation into the incident.
According to the statement, five suspects, including the deceased’s son, daughter, driver, gateman and another individual, were initially arrested in connection with the case.
However, following the conclusion of investigations, only Adimike Odirachukwu Anthony, Adimike Chinyere Stephany and Comfort Ajibade were charged before the court, while the other two suspects were not included in the charge.
The prosecution alleged that the three defendants conspired to kill the deceased and jointly charged them with criminal conspiracy and culpable homicide.
The charge also alleged offences under the Same Sex Marriage (Prohibition) Act.
According to the police, Adimike Odirachukwu Anthony faces a separate count alleging entry into a same-sex civil union, while Adimike Chinyere Stephany and Comfort Ajibade were jointly charged with a similar alleged offence.
The court adjourned the matter until Sept. 30, 2026, for further proceedings and ordered that the defendants remain in custody pending the hearing.
The FCT Police Command reiterated its commitment to ensuring justice for victims of crime while respecting the constitutional rights of all parties throughout the judicial process.
