A 34-year-old man, Vincent Chikeluba, yesterday, appeared before an Ojo Magistrates’ Court in Lagos, accused of attempting to strangle his mother, Mrs Chinwe Chikeluba.
The defendant, who appeared before Magistrate D. S. Odukoya, pleaded not guilty to the three-count charge of assault, stealing and causing a breach of the peace.
The prosecutor, Dr Simon Uche, told the court that the defendant committed the offences sometime in February.
Uche said Vincent allegedly stole his mother’s property worth N125,000.
