More than 9,000 people have signed an online petition demanding justice for popular Gospel singer Osinachi Nwachukwu and other alleged victims of domestic violence in Nigeria.
They are also calling for legislation to deal with domestic abuse.
Nwachukwu’s death has outraged many Nigerians and has led to conversations around marriage, domestic violence and divorce.
Initially, the singer was said to have died of throat cancer, but friends and family alleged that she was the victim of domestic violence.
Her husband, Peter Nwachukwu is in police custody but has not been charged with any offence. Investigations are still ongoing
