An Abuja High Court has given an order of interim injunction restraining the Minister of Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike, and others from selling a landed property.
The property is located at Plot No. 4411, Cadastral Zone A09, Guzape District, Abuja.
Justice Mohammed Zubairu made the order following an ex-parte motion moved by counsel to the applicant, Reuben Atabo, SAN.
Although the motion ex-parte, marked: M/16807/2024, was moved by Atabo on Monday, its certified true copy was made available to NAN on Tuesday.
Justice Zubairu, who is a vacation judge, held that he was inclined to grant the application as prayed in the interest of justice and the spirit of fair hearing.
“The interim order of injunction is to last for a few days pending when all parties are served and appear before this court for the hearing of the motion on notice.
“Consequently, an order of interim injunction is hereby made restraining the defendants/respondents whether by themselves or agents. privies, servants, workmen and any person howsoever called acting on their behalf from trespassing into and interfering with the claimant’s exclusive possession of the properly.”
He said the order subsisted pending the hearing and determination of the motion on notice.
“In the same vein, prayers 2, 3 and 4 are granted as prayed,” he added.
