A 16-year-old seamstress apprentice,
Cecilia Ukpa, has been arrested by the police for pouring hot water on
her colleague over a disagreement.
Ukpa and the victim, Abigael Albert,
live in the same residence with their boss on Meyiga Street, Ilogbo, in
the Ajangbadi area of the state.
PUNCH Metro learnt that a
senior apprentice had instructed Ukpa to take the generator used in the
shop inside on June 23 when they were about to close for the day.
Ukpa reportedly declined the order,
giving the excuse that the boss had sent her on an errand. She was said
to have told the senior to give the task to Albert. Ukpa’s suggestion
reportedly angered the victim, leading to an altercation between them.
Ukpa,
who is also a senior secondary school pupil of the Ilogbo Grammar
School, said, “On the June 23, Abigael (Albert) and I were in shop when
our boss sent me to go and wash plates. I wanted to wash the plates when
one of my seniors sent me to take the generator inside. I told her that
our boss had sent me on an errand; that she should send Abigael or
another person.
