Osinachi is trending once again after a major court verdict related to her tragic death was delivered. On April 28, 2025, the Federal Capital Territory High Court sentenced Peter Nwachukwu, the husband of the late gospel singer Osinachi Nwachukwu, to death by hanging.
Osinachi, famous for her powerful voice and gospel hits like "Ekwueme," passed away in 2022 under suspicious circumstances that immediately drew public attention. Initially believed to have died of throat cancer, investigations later revealed disturbing allegations of prolonged domestic abuse by her husband. Her death sparked nationwide conversations about domestic violence, particularly within religious and traditional settings.
After a lengthy legal process, the court found Peter Nwachukwu guilty of culpable homicide and other charges relating to the abuse that allegedly led to Osinachi’s death. According to reports, the court ruled that the evidence presented clearly linked her death to physical violence endured over the years. The judgment has been met with mixed emotions — relief that justice is served, but sorrow that it took her life to highlight the dangers of silent domestic abuse.
Social media has exploded with reactions, with many users honoring Osinachi’s memory and calling for continued advocacy against domestic violence. Human rights groups and activists have praised the ruling, stating that it sends a strong message to abusers that justice will prevail.
The verdict has reopened conversations around protecting vulnerable individuals and the need for stronger domestic abuse laws in Nigeria. Osinachi’s name trends not just because of her tragic end, but because her story has become a symbol of courage, resilience, and the need for societal change.
