She was arrested and arraigned in court but she pleaded not guilty to the murder charge preferred against her.
According to Justice Abimbola, Yewande’s sentence was to start running since the day of her arrest.
The day of judgement was initially slated for November 24, 2017 but the judge moved the day to November 27, 2017 because of other engagements at the Nigerian Judicial Commission.
