The murdered Anambra lady is not a relative of renowned novelist Chimamamda Adichie, our reporter gathered on Monday.
There was a viral report that the deceased, a wife of one Emenike Okoye, an engineer, was beaten to death by her brother-in-law, George Okoye, over a land dispute. She was reported to be a relative of Adichie.
In a news report by PUNCH, Chimamanda Adichie said that the deceased is not her relative and anybody who is circulating such news should deceased from that.
“Chimamanda is highly disappointed for the way media outlets are going unprofessional in reportage these days.
“I’m not shaken from their inaccurate way of bringing reputable personality into fake news both the false reporter and the rejoinders,” Omawuomi Ogbe, a member of Chimamanda’s communication team, said.
