An Ogudu Magistrates’ Court in Lagos State, on Thursday, remanded in prison, a woman, Alimot Oyekan, after she pleaded guilty to the charge of poisoning her cousin’s cassava flour (fufu).

The Magistrate, Mrs Sule Amzat, said the accused should be kept behind bars pending facts and sentence.

He said the accused poisoned the cassava flour (fufu) the complainant (the cousin) prepared for sell to the public.

"The complainant went home to prepare the `fufu’ for the next market day and she discovered that the taste and colour had changed," he said.

The offences contravened sections 241 and 244 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State, 2011.

The magistrate adjourned the case to Friday.
