Chudi-Hengari-Ajufo and Ronnie Atuqiya jailed for life for the murder of teenager

Two young men, 19 year old Chudi-Hengari-Ajufo (whose parents are Nigerians) and 21 year old Ronnie Atuqiya were jailed for life on July 3rd for the murder of David Maxwell in Southwark, London. Ronnie Atuqiya will serve a minimum of 20 years while Chudi Hengari-Ajufo will serve a minimum of 16 years.

In November 2014, the two young men pursued the victim, David Maxwell, down a street on Long Lane, Southwark, and stabbed him in the back, chest and shoulder in broad daylight. David later died in hospital. One stab wound had pierced his heart.

The boys were arrested days after the sad incident after CCTV footage showed David being followed by the two young men...and also showed them running away from the scene. Eyewitnesses also identified them. Even after being found guilty and jailed, the motive for the attack is still unclear.
