The incident, according to Comfort, the incident happened on February 9, 2020, while she was talking to a friend outside their residence at 3, Idiatu Kilani Street in the Fagba area of New Oko Oba, Agege, Lagos.

She claimed that had made passes at her which she rejected on several occasions, after which he threatened to deal with her.

‘’I started having issues with our landlord, (Adisa), shortly after we moved into his house three years ago when he made several passes at me.

‘’He was persistent in asking me out following my rejection of his love advances and at a point I reported him to my husband. He then threatened that he would deal with me for spawning him. He has own wife, yet, he disturbs me by asking me to date him.

‘’Last night, I was seated beside one of my friends outside our residence when a woman living near our house told me that my landlord said my daughter was fond of harassing her own daughter.

I told the woman that my daughter was innocent of the allegations and that God would expose whoever is behind the false allegations.

Suddenly, my landlord rushed to where I was engaging the woman and attacked me for no reasons. He was wearing a trouser without any shirt on his body and he beat me to pulp.

He held me down with his strength while he called on one of his friends who joined him to further brutalise me. The beating was so much that I sustained injuries on my body.

There’s a deep cut on one my arm as I speak. I was rushed to a hospital and placed on admission while my husband reported the incident to the police at Oko-Oba Division.

‘’However, nothing came out of the police intervention because our landlord sought the help of some community leaders who used their connection with the police to deny me justice.’’

In his remarks, Comfort’s husband, David Giwa said he was planning to move out of the building before his landlord brutalise his wife for refusing his love advances.

‘’My wife had told me that our landlord was fond of peeping through the bathroom door to look at her naked body whenever she is having her 

After he was cautioned, I figured out that his attitude was a signal to leave his house and I started saving money to get another accommodation in order to save my wife and children from the incessant harassment by my landlord.
