Upon the Commissioner's arrival, the Lagos State Police command had already arrested the 30-year-old pregnant woman, Mrs. Eucharia Ndigwe, for allegedly cutting her teenage maid's body with a knife at Adaloko, in Ojo area of Lagos state.


The case has been transferred to the Gender Unit of the command where they are currently working with the Lagos State Domestic, Sexual and Gender Violence Agency. 


Speaking immediately after leaving the Police headquarters in Lagos, Hon Obinabo, appreciated the efforts of the Lagos police command in apprehending the offender and promised to follow up the case to the latter. 


She noted that the wife of the governor of Anambra state is very much interested in the case and has assured to use everything within her power to get justice for the abused. 


Visiting the survivor Chinaza Anienene at the hospital, Anambra state women and social welfare boss assured her of justice and thanked everyone who in one way or another came to the aid of Chinaza and for giving her the necessary treatment and support needed. 


Hon Obinabo is currently working with the Ministry of Women Affairs, Lagos state, Anambra state police command and Lagos state police command in processing the paper work needed in facilitating the release and transfer of the case to Anambra while the offender would be arraigned in court tomorrow in Lagos State for prosecution. 


The Commissioner will be returning with the girl after an official handover by the Lagos State Police Command and Ministry of Women Affairs Lagos State.
