A 30-year-old artisan, Kabiru Tajudeen, who allegedly beat his landlady to a pulp for giving him a quit notice on Wednesday appeared before an Ikeja Chief Magistrates’ Court. Tajudeen, who resides at 28, Omoroga Street, Powerline, Meiran, a suburb of Lagos, is being tried for assault. The prosecutor, Inspector Raji Akeem, told the court that Tajudeen committed the offence on April 1 at his residence. Akeem said that the landlady, Mrs Omowunmi Omoroga, gave the quit notice to the accused in 2017 but he refused to comply with it. “The accused beat the complainant to a pulp, and she was rushed to a hospital by some other tenants,” he said.
