A tenant, Yemi Daramola has allegedly bitten her landlord, Mr Paul Ajayi on the lower lips, cutting off a part during a misunderstanding over unpaid rent in Akure, the Ondo State capital.
An eyewitness explained that the suspect (Yemi) is the wife of one Ojo Daramola who rented a room apartment and had been living in the house for more than three years, but recently had issues with the landlord over their failure to pay rent for over a year.
The source said they suddenly heard noise
from the house and found the landlord’s lip cut off while his cloth was socked with his own blood and a part of the lip was still on the suspect’s mouth.

Ajayi who is a cobbler said “They owed me 18 months rent and I went to meet the husband when he arrived from work at around 8 o’clock at night.

The landlord added that that was not the first time the suspect would attack neighbours whenever she had misunderstanding with them.
“Three years ago, she bit her step son and was arrested but it was later settled. Last year, she also injured her co tenant, who was later taken to local orthopaedics for treatment.”
He explained that court would sit on the case this week.
A source said the magistrate had ordered that the woman be remanded pending the next hearing.
Confirming the incident, the Police Public Relations Officer, Ondo State Command, Femi Joseph said he had not been fully briefed on the matter.
Mr Joseph however explained that once it had been established that the case is in court, the Police must have prosecuted the suspect.
Meanwhile, the Dental Section of the State Specialists Hospital Akure has recommended a plastic surgery for Paul Ajayi and a sum of Five Hundred Thousand naira would be needed to carry out the surgery on his lip.
He has therefore been referred to the Obafemi Awolowo University teaching hospital in Ile-Ife for the surgery.
A referrer letter signed by Dr Olasehinde and addressed to the plastic surgery team of the OAU Teaching Hospital, states ‘Ajayi, age 63, Male suffered avulsion of the lower lip“ when his co-tenant bit him on his lip .”
