A prosecution witness, Ms Elsie Imaikop, on Tuesday told an FCT High Court that her ex–fiancé, an Abuja-based legal practitioner, Emmanuel Omattah, who bites off her index finger, also confessed to her that he had duped some girls.
The Office of Attorney-General of the Federation, charged Omattah who resides in Shagari Dei Dai, Abuja with eight counts bordering on assault, causing grievous hurt, intimidation and deceit.
At the resumed hearing, the witness who is also the complainant told the court during cross-examination, that the defendant confessed to her that he had duped some girls in the past.

And who’s the worthless woman that allows a man to secretly marry her? Is she not presentable or why is he hiding her? Nobody really understands what goes on inside the heads of some women. A man who never takes a woman to his residence, or to meet his family and friends, for example, is definitely hiding something. Most women adore men who lie to them or turn their faces away from the truth. Do we have to end up in psychiatric hospitals before reality dawns on us?
