LAGOS, Nigeria (VOICE OF NAIJA)- A woman identified as Ijeoma Ifeanyi, popularly known as Bishop Lilian has allegedly bathed her house help simply identified as Chioma with hot water over a misunderstanding.
Lilian, who works at a radio station in Imo State, reportedly brutalized her housemaid for preparing watery pap for her.
Narrating her ordeal in a video sighted by journalists, the house help said that her mistress poured hot water on her after the pap turned watery when it was prepared.
“She (her mistress) poured me hot water. I went and bought pap, I did not check well from the woman I bought the pap from, so it happened that the pap I bought was not good. When I prepared in the morning, it was watery, and she became angry and shouted at me. She asked why it was watery, and I told her it might be because the water was too hot.

“In the afternoon, I prepared it, and it was also watery. She became angry and then prepared another by herself, and the one she prepared was the same but a little bit thicker than the ones I did. She asked if I bought all the Paps at the same place, and I told her yes. She then asked why the one she prepared was thicker than mine, and I said that I did not know; then she poured the hot water in the kettle she had on me.
“I quickly raised my cloth from my breast with force, and that was when the wound on my breast opened. The wound on my lap (thigh) did not open immediately. It swelled up later and opened into a big wound.”
Chioma added that the mistress refused to treat her till night when she poured white vitamin C on her wounds.
According to the house help, she had come to live with Ijeoma, whose husband was away, after she came to their house from Mbaise in Imo State with her relative and indicated an interest in taking her (Chioma) to live with her (Ijeoma).
Chioma further revealed she had gone back to her place but returned to Ijeoma’s house in January this year.
