The police in Lagos have arrested a
chief in the Ijegun area, identified only as Ajiroba, for allegedly
assaulting a bread seller, Bukola Olasunkanmi, in the Isheri-Oshun area
of the state. Olasunkanmi, who was seven-month-old pregnant, was allegedly flogged
several times by the chief and his thugs because she mediated in an
argument involving some levy collectors and another bread seller at the
Ijegun bus stop.
