LAGOS — AN 80-year-old
man, Godwin Faworinshe,
who claims to be a pastor
with a church in Shomolu,
Lagos was allegedly drugged
and robbed by his 49-year-
old mistress, Funmilola
Adesanya.
A distraught Faworinshe
from Ago-Iwoye in
OgunState, told a magistrate
court in Yaba that his
Ikorodu, Lagos-born mistress
added sleeping pills to his
medication and bolted with
his money after he fell into a
deep sleep.
In his testimony in the court,
Faworinshe, stated that he
had promised to give
Funmilola some money to
enable her start a new
business but she was not
patient enough.
According to him, “on that
fateful day, I went out in the
morning, Funmilola probably
thought that I had gone to
the bank to collect some
huge amount of money.
When I got back around
11am, I requested that she
give me my medications. I
have been on some
prescribed medications due
to ailments attributed to old
age.
And one of the reasons I
asked her to move in with
me, was to help me with
cooking and household
chores; otherwise, I have a
wife who is currently in my
house at Ago-Iwoye, but she
is old, so I had to engage
Funmi to take care of me.
She had always administered
the medicines to me. Albeit,
without my knowledge, she
added some sleeping pills to
my medicine that morning
and immediately I took it, I
slept off till she got the
chance to take my bag and
the money I had in the bag.
The amount she took was
N172,000. Thereafter, she
ran out of the house.”
The pastor further told the
court that around 4pm,
some of his tenants, who
noticed that he had been
sleeping for a longer period
than he usually did during
the day started banging on
his door, calling “Baba!
Baba!! Baba!!!” When they
discovered that the door was
not locked, they opened it
and found him in deep
sleep; they had to pour
water on him before he
woke. Not able to explain
what happened to him, he
asked for Funmi, his mistress,
and one his of tenants told
him that he saw her going
out in the morning hours.
He searched his room and
discovered that the N172,000
he kept in his bag was
missing; that was when he
suspected that he must have
been drugged and robbed
by his mistress.
The matter was reported to
the Bariga police station and
Funmi was arrested 13 days
later in Ikorodu.
However, Funmilola has
denied adding any sleeping
pills to Faworinshe’s
medicine that morning or
stealing his money. She told
the court that Godwin had
given her the money to go
to Ikorodu and take care of
her ailing child. She added
that their relationship had
been having some
challenges, one of which was
Faworinshe’s non-chalant
attitude towards the upkeep
of her children. A
responsibility he did not
want to carry.
In her words: “I had told
Baba that one of my
children was ill, but he did
not want to do anything
about it, he would always
ask me, do you want to
bring the responsibility of
another man’s children to
me?’ This is one of the
reasons I want to opt out.
Godwin is only accusing me
because he must have felt
bad with the thought of me
leaving him”.
Information provided by the
police, however, showed that
the accused had earlier in
her statement after she was
arrested, admitted
committing the crime.
Her lawyer pleaded that the
matter be resolved amicably
out of court. The case was
adjourned, while the accused
was granted bail in the sum
of N30,000 with two sureties
in like sum.

Stingy man. Thats all I can say.

Ok 'allegedly'. Case is still in court and suspect is innocent until proven guilty. Ha, people from that part of the country and their fraudulent activities doing what they know best, shior! Ok i hate doing this but 'i'm 2nd TC'!

OP what kinda copy and paste is this la?

If he needed help with cooking and housechores, he should have engaged a househelp, not a mistress!
