It was leant that the girl, simply identified as Oluebube, lives in the compound with the woman, 30, when the latter overreacted over a minor issue.
Narrating the incident to journalists in Port Harcourt, the state capital on Saturday, the sister of the injured girl, Olucho, said the woman carried out the act because her sister mistakenly hit her with water at their corridor.
“My sister was washing plates outside. The woman (Abigail) went and fetched water. Because our corridor is dark, the person inside can see somebody outside, but the person outside cannot see the person inside,” she told Punch.
“The woman stood there with her water, but she did not tell my sister not to come with the pot to avoid running into her.
“So my sister, unknowingly, entered with the pot and ran into the woman, and both of them fell,” she added.
