A 51- year-old Lagos woman, Oluchi Okoye, who allegedly inflicted bodily injuries on her 15-year-old housekeeper, on Thursday appeared before an Ikeja Chief Magistrates’ Court.

Kubeinje ordered that the sureties should be gainfully employed and should reside within the court’s jurisdiction.

She also ordered that the sureties should present evidence of two years tax payment to the Lagos State Government.

Kibeinje adjourned the case until Aug. 28 for further hearing.
