P.M.EXPRESS reports that the incident happened on 10th November, 2025, at Ojojo Estate, Mende, Maryland, Lagos, over an undisclosed matter.

According to the Police,  the suspect had a disagreement with the complainant which led to exchange of words and a fight. And in the process, the suspect inflicted injury on her with punches and allegedly stole her phone.

The matter was reported to the Police at Anthony Division. The suspect was arrested and detained at the station for interrogation over his alleged conduct against the complainant.

After interrogation,  the Police found him culpable and charged him before the Ogba Magistrate Court for the alleged offence.

The charges read:

“That you, Sunday Junior ‘m’ on the 10 day of November, 2025 at about 0800hrs at No. 1 Ojojo Estate, Mende, Maryland, Lagos, within Ikeja Magisterial district, did unlawfully assault one Ajose Oluwatosin Adesewa ‘F, by punching fist blows all over her body and also kicked her with your legs which caused her harm on her right hand and on her right leg and thereby committed an offence contrary to and punishable under Section 173 of the criminal laws of Lagos State of Nigeria, 2015.”

However, he pleaded not guilty.

The prosecutor, Supol Josephine Ihkayere, then asked the Court to give a date for hearing since he pleaded not guilty to enable the Police to prove that he actually committed the alleged offence.
