The Supreme Court, on Monday, in Abuja granted a request by a firm owned by former President Olusegun Obasanjo – Ibad Limited – for time to regularise its two appeals.
Lawyers to the three respondents in both appeals – Reuben Atabo for Consolidated Resources Nig. Ltd and U. J Obialo for the Federal Capital Development Authority and the Minister of Federal Capital Territory , second and third defendants, did not object to Abimbola’s application.
Consolidated Resources had through its lawyer, Reuben Atabo sued in 1999, stating that in early 1990s it was duly allocated the parcel of land measuring 2.1 hectares, known as Plot 1263, A6, Maitama District after paying all relevant fees to the FCDA, following which the the FCT Minister, Lt. Gen.Jerry Useni issued it with a certificate of occupancy marked: FCT/ABU/MISC/11762 on May 19, 1994.
Consolidated Resources stated that prior to hearing the substantive suit, Justice Aladetoyinbo issued an ex-parte order on May 12, 1999 restraining the FCDA and FCT Minister from reallocating any part of the land to any other person or agency pending the final determination of the suit.
