Apparently the man who is the cause of the fight was said to have dated the three women without any of them suspecting anything. When the truth about his escapades broke out a quarrel ensued with each woman wanting to have him all to herself.

Although one of the women suggested that they should continue their secret relationship with Tayo, but the others were not in support which led to a fight among the women, with them getting injured in the process.

The Police intervened, took them to Olosun division where the police attempted to settle the matter amicably but attempts to resolve the matter failed.

Mrs F.O Abegunde granted them bail in the sum of N50,000 with one surety in like sum but none of the suspects could fulfill the bail condition.

The matter was adjourned till June 16th, 2014.
