Wicked sister pours water on stepsister ,denied it

Yemisi Arogbonlo, the 24-year-old medical
student who allegedly poured hot water on her
stepsister, Oluwafunke, on Friday, December 4,
at their house on Road 1, Federal Housing
Estate, Mile 4, Port Harcourt, Rivers State, has
denied the crime.
Yemisi, who spoke with Punch Metro on the
telephone on Thursday, said she had a fight with
Oluwafunke and it was during the scuffle that
the 32-year-old mistakenly fell on a bucket of
hot water and injured herself.
She said she (Yemisi) had wanted to bath with
the water.
Punch Metro had reported that Oluwafunke and
her stepmother, Victoria, had a disagreement
sometime in September, and the 60-year-old
woman fell down, hitting her head against a
wall. Victoria was said to have told her four
children that Oluwafunke beat her up.
It was reported that Yemisi, who arrived from
Nasarawa State where she was studying a
medical course on the faithful Friday, allegedly
poured hot water on the victim while she
(Oluwafunke) was sleeping, inflicting burns
injuries on her neck, breasts, chest and leg.
Yemisi, however, said Oluwafunke mistakenly fell
on a bucket of hot water she had prepared for
her bath.
She said, ''I arrived from the school on Friday
around 8pm and she was not around. Later, I
saw her emerge from her room and we greeted.
I told her we had a lot of gist since we last saw
about six months ago.
''She said she was surprised I was talking
with her. I asked why she said that, and she
replied that it was not important.
''I drifted off to sleep and I woke up around
11pm. I boiled water for my bath and took the
bucket of water to the bathroom we all shared.
''I was there when I saw her and I asked if
she had changed the bed sheet where we would
sleep because we share the same bed. She
asked if I didn't hear that she beat up my
mother while I was away from home. She said
she could not believe that I could still talk to
her. I was angry because she didn't even put
into consideration that the woman was old.
''I punched her and that was how we began
to struggle and there was confusion in the
house.''
Yemisi explained that during the scuffle,
Oluwafunke fell on the bucket of hot water,
which scalded her body.
She said she regretted fighting with the victim,
adding that it was the handiwork of the devil.
''I started crying when I saw what had
happened. I treated her wounds to the best of
my medical ability and I eventually took her to a
hospital.
''My father later took her to another hospital.
The medical doctors said somebody will have to
stay with her and I decided to do that. Later, her
friends came and started insulting me. When her
mother also arrived from Lagos, she said I
should not stay with her again and all my
attempts to explain what happened to her fell on
deaf ears.'' She added.
But Oluwafunke told Punch Metro on the
telephone that the claim she fought with Yemisi
was a lie.
''It is a big lie. I was sleeping when she
poured hot water on me. She is 24 years old, so
how can she overpower me if we actually
fought?'' She queried.
*Change the bedsheet both of you would sleep
on, because she is your mate, someone that is
older than you with 8years...#hisssss.. I can see
your 'home training'. Why did you come home,
fews days after she 'fought' with your mom? So
she fell on the hot water and it poured on her
face, breasts, thighs, etc,.. You try, tell that to
the birds, not buying this story,
