A 27-year-old Nigerian trader on Tuesday appeared before a Circuit Court in Accra for allegedly exposing her one-year-old child to danger.
Uche Nagani pleaded not guilty and was remanded in police custody while the child is in the custody of the police.
She would re-appear on March 9.
Nagani wearing a short dress and unkempt hair, told the court that she had information that her Nigerian boyfriend was flirting with other women and therefore visited a hotel frequently used by her boyfriend to look for him.
The Police informed the court that this was the third time the accused had committed the offence therefore, the court asked the police to assist her with counselling.
Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP) Sarah Acquah prosecuting, said Nagani lived at Kasoa Buduburam.
On February 1, this year, at about 23:00 hours, Nagani left her baby in the care of one Achiama, her friend at the Kwame Nkrumah Circle, Accra, to look for her boyfriend at the hotel.
ASP Acquah said Achiama reported the case to the Police and Nagani was picked up at dawn.
She said Nagani had signed two undertakings at the Domestic Violence and Victims Support Unit (DOVVSU) to desist from exposing her child to danger.
