Odogwu Asaba: What the WhatsApp chat revealed
According to Joe, the conversations show Favour reaching out repeatedly to Ogbonna, asking him to help cover the cost of treating injuries she sustained after he allegedly forced himself on her and took her innocence.
She reportedly made clear before visiting him that she had no intention of travelling to Abuja and had vowed to remain celibate until marriage. Joe stated that Ogbonna diverted her plans and had her come to Asaba instead.
Rather than responding with concern, the chats allegedly show Odogwu Asaba dismissing her pleas and daring her to involve her parents or walk into a police station.
Joe described those words as deeply wounding to a young woman who came from a poor family and was quietly hoping he would take responsibility. After several days, Odogwu reportedly sent her N10,000 before switching to threats and intimidation, a pattern Joe says contributed directly to Favour's deteriorating mental state and ultimately her death.
Joe stated that he holds more screenshots in reserve and intends to submit the bulk of the evidence to the court rather than continue releasing them publicly.
He directly addressed critics on Facebook who had been questioning Favour's conduct, urging them to examine the chats and stop placing blame on the victim.
