They, however, pleaded not guilty to the charge.

“Onagbulum accused Odey of snatching her former husband, while Odey accused Onagbulum of using ‘juju’ to shrink his private parts.
“A fight broke out between the two defendants, and Odey used a broken bottle to stab Onagbulum in the head, jaw and neck.
“Upon seeing Onagbulum on the ground, Onagbulum’s 16-year-old daughter picked a stone and hit her in the eye,” Mr Ndam told the court.
The prosecutor noted that the offence contravened the provisions of sections 113, 139 and 245 of the Penal Code.
The judge, Godiya Bawa, admitted the defendants to bail in the sum of N100,000 each and one surety each in the like sum.
Mr Bawa adjourned the matter until March 15 for further hearing.
