Woman Arraigned For Posting Pictures Of Husband’s Alleged ‘Side Chick’ On TikTok
A civil servant, Mojisola Benson, was on Monday, arraigned before an Ogudu Magistrate’s Court in Lagos State for allegedly posting pictures of another woman on social media, claiming that she was dating her husband.
Benson, who resides at Ifako in the Gbagada area of Lagos, is facing a one-count charge of breach of peace.
When the charges were read to her, she pleaded not guilty.
The prosecutor, Inspector Sunday Bassey, told the court that the defendant posted pictures of the complainant, one Oyindamola Adejumola, on WhatsApp and TikTok on April 3 at Gbagada, Lagos.
He alleged that the defendant conducted herself in a manner likely to cause a breach of the peace.
Bassey said, “The complainant said that the defendant posted her picture on social media, alleging she was dating her husband, Babatunde Olumide. The said caption caused her distress.
“She also sent messages to her grandfather and sister, telling them to warn the complainant to steer clear from her husband.
“The complainant went to a financial institution around Ifako and a woman she didn’t even know was warning and insulting her to steer clear of people’s husbands. This caused her embarrassment,” the lawyer added.
The prosecutor said the offence contravened Section 168(d) of the Criminal Law of Lagos State, 2015.
The presiding Magistrate, Mrs O. A. Daodu, granted the defendant bail in the sum of N30,000 with one surety in like sum.
She subsequently adjourned the case until May 6 for mention.
