Mother and daughter in messy fight over married lover

In what may look like a scene out of a Nollywood movie, a mother and daughter were reported to have engaged in a bizarre fight over a married man in Abuja, Nigeria.


According to reports, the alleged fight happened in the Nyanya area of Abuja.

The report states that the woman, who is a single parent of four children, runs a “drinking spot” in the same area whereas the daughter with whom she was fighting, is a student at a tertiary institution in Nasarawa State.

Speaking on the issue to newsmen, a witness of the fight narrated the issue;

“It was a sight to behold as the woman who is probably in her 40s, engaged her daughter who cannot be more than 22, in a serious fight in her beer parlour. They fought so bitterly that the fight spilled outside, drawing a large crowd of onlookers.

They tore their clothes and were only left with only their underwear. We later gathered that they were fighting over a man who has been secretly dating the two of them; imagine sleeping with both mother and daughter.
When we were able to calm them down, we asked what led to the fight but the mother was silent initially until the daughter opened up that her mother snatched her man friend who has been sponsoring her in school.”
According to the eyewitness’ report, the mother claimed that the daughter had “snatched” the said gentleman from her.

“At that point, the mother also opened up, saying it was actually the daughter that snatched the man from her, saying she had been dating him for over five years and the man only started sleeping with the daughter last year“, he told the media house.
