Nigerian Olympic Athlete, Ambrose, Sentenced to Life in Prisonment For Killing SA Woman


I find it hard to understand how a someone will comfortably KILL a fellow human being. It's crazy!

Former Nigerian Olympian, Ambrose Monye (left), was on Wednesday been sentenced to life in prison by a South Africa court for the murder of a 26yr old woman, Channelle Henning (middle).

Ambrose, who took part in Souelle Olympic in 1988, was said to have killed Channelle as she drove out after dropping her young son at a Montessori Preschool in East Pretoria South Africa on November 8th, 2011.

Ambrose Monye and his accomplice, Mr Andre Gouws, who was also sentenced to life in prison, were said to have collected a huge sum of money as reward to kill the innocent woman.

Sadly, they were contracted to kill her by Channelle Henning's estranged husband, Mr Nick (pictured right).

After denying their involvement in the shooting and killing of Channelle for almost two years, Ambrose and his accomplice finally confessed on Wednesday that they were indeed involved in the dastardly act.

According to Andre's confession in court on Wednesday morning, Channelle and her husband, Nick have been on a custody battle for their young son for a while. Nick then decided the best way to have custody of their son was to permanently get rid of his wife.

He contacted Andre Gouws to help carry out the murder with a reward of one million rand if successfully done. Andre then contacted Ambrose to help facilitate the killing with a promise to pay him 50,000rand.

Ambrose then contracted two men - Doepie and Pike - who carried out the murder. Both guys are already in prison, serving 18-year jail terms each, after they pleaded guilty to the murder charge and exposed those who paid them for the job.

Nigeria's Ambrose Monye was described by the investigative team as the kingpin of Pretoria's underworld. He has a history of being involved in murder cases. In 2011, he was arrested and later released in South Africa for allegedly beating a man to death.

Officially, Ambrose runs a "security" company in South Africa.
