A woman has been arrested for stabbing a food seller because she refused
to sell food to her on credit in Lagos. The 47-year-old
suspect, named Aminat Ayileri, is a tailor who is struggling to make
ends meet. As a result, she frequently bought food on credit from a food
seller in Ejigbo, named Abiodun Ishola. Aminat had reportedly racked
up a debt of N8,000 overtime. When she went to ask Abiodun to sell food
to her again, Abiodun refused and asked her to pay up her debts before
she will get food. That did not go down well with Aminat and she
attacked Abiodun and stabbed her close to the right eye. Aminat was
charged before the Ejigbo Magistrates Court for assault where she
pleaded not guilty before the Court. Aminat was granted bail in the sum
of N50,000 with one surety in like sum. She was remanded in prison
custody pending when she will perfect her bail condition.The matter was
adjourned till 9th January, 2018.
