"Omo, See Gobe" ; Bride-To Be Lands In Kirikiri Prison One Week To Her Wedding

A 33-year-old woman, Olawunmi Oyebode, has been remanded in prison at Kirikiri over alleged assault. It was gathered that the incident happened one week to her wedding. She was arraigned before a Magistrates’ Court sitting in Isolo, Laos State, for the alleged offence.

Oyebode, who had concluded plans to celebrating her wedding, allegedly slapped her neighbour, Anthony Onyeka, over an undisclosed reason.

The incident happened at 51, Ijikoyejo Street, Ijeshatedo, Lagos, where they reside. After the alleged assault, Onyeka went to Ijeshatedo police division and reported Oyebode and she was arrested and taken to the station.

 It was gathered that every attempt by the police to settle the rift failed as Oyebode refused to apologise to Onyeka. Thereafter, the police charged Oyebode to court for assault. When she was arraigned, she pleaded not guilty.

The Magistrate, Mrs Joy Ugbomoiko, granted her bail in the sum of N20,000 with one surety. She was remanded in prison custody pending when her bail will be perfected. The matter was adjourned till October 16.
