of the agreed sum.
There was a disagreement between the duo and the suspect allegedly
beat up Sunday.
He was also alleged to have stolen her handset, estimated at N45,000.
Nnachi was arraigned before an Ebute Meta Magistrate's Court on
Tuesday on two counts of assault and stealing.

about 4am on Borno Way, Ebute Meta, Lagos, in the Lagos Magisterial
District, did unlawfully assault one Patience Sunday by beating her up
and hitting her with blows…."
The police prosecutor, Inspector Asu Feddy, said the offences were
punishable under sections 172 and 285 of the Criminal Law of Lagos
State of Nigeria, 2011.
Nnachi pleaded not guilty.
The magistrate, E.O. Ogunkanmi, admitted him to bail in the sum of N20, 000.
