She said on one occasion she had to follow the deceased to her daughter’s school to make her hair because of fear of the defendant.

She also alleged that she had to make the deceased daughter’s hair in a toilet at a mall because she needed to hide to avoid the defendant.

While cross-examining her, Aliyu asked the witness if she advised the deceased to ever leave the defendant, as stated in her statement to the police.

She responded that she gave her the advice because of the way the defendant was treating her.

According to the News Agency of Nigeria, when asked if she knew what led to Osinachi’s death, Iyamabe stated that she was told that she died as a result of throat cancer.
