An Igbosere High Court in Lagos on Monday remanded a 48-year-old female lawyer, Udeme Otike-Odibi, at Kirikiri prison for reportedly killing her 52-year-old husband, Symphorosa Otike-Odibi.

She also allegedly chopped off his penis.

Mrs Udeme, 47, was arraigned by the Lagos State Government on a two-count charge of murder and misconduct with regard to a corpse.

She however, pleaded not guilty to the charge.

The Lagos State prosecutor, Sunmonu Babatunde, had told the court that the accused committed the alleged offences on May 3, at Diamond Estate, Sangotedo, Lekki, Lagos.

He said that the accused stabbed her husband and mutilated his corpse by cutting off his genitals.

The offences contravened Sections 165 (b) and 223 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State, 2015.

Section 165 (b) provides five-year imprisonment while Section 223 also stipulates death.

The judge, Adedayo Akintoye, however remanded the accused in prison and adjourned the case until October 8 and 9 for hearing.
