Three tenants, who were charged with affray, were each granted N50,000 bail by the Somolu Magistrate’s Court, Lagos.

The accused, however, pleaded not guilty.

The prosecution told the court that Funke, the landlord’s daughter and Tobi, also a grandson, engaged a tenant, Seun, in a fight for making a noise with her shoes while entering the house.

He said the offence contravened Section 83 of the Criminal Code, laws of Lagos State 2000.
