The court heard of how Godwin and Gbemisola engaged in a public fight on January 5, at about 7:30 am at their residents in Queen cinema area, Ibadan.

Prosecutor, Sgt. Salewa Hammed said, ”During the fight, the two accused persons allegedly fought each other by pouring faeces on themselves thereby polluting the atmosphere with faeces.

“This makes it noxious to the health of the general public.”

According to Hammed, the fight ensued between the accused persons over the use of the toilet in the compound.

“It was Godwin that first entered the restroom before Gbemisola knocked and asked Godwin to come out as she was pressed, later it led to a fight between them,” he said.

Hammed stated that the offence contravened section 83 and 247 (a) of the Criminal Code Cap 38, Vol.II Laws of Oyo State 2000.

However, the accused persons pleaded not guilty to the charges levelled against them in court.
