The Federal High Court in Abuja has dismissed a suit challenging the late Kalabari High Chief, O.B. Lulu-Briggs’ transfer of his shares in Moni Pulo Limited to his wife, Dr. Seinye O.B. Lulu-Briggs, his daughters and the O.B. Lulu-Briggs Foundation.
The suit was filed by the Chairman of Platform Petroleum, Chief Dumo Lulu-Briggs and three others.
Justice James Kolawole Omotosho noted that Dumo’s suit, marked FHC/ABJ/CS/1481/2021, was the same as suit FHC/ABJ/CS/1576/2019, which was discontinued by Justice Taiwo Taiwo on September 30, 2021, and which is pending on appeal before the Court of Appeal.
The judge held that Dumo’s suit was a gross abuse of court processes.
The 1st to 4th plaintiffs in the suit marked FHC/ABJ/CS/1481/2021 are Senibo Lulu-Briggs, Dumo Lulu-Briggs, Sofiri Lulu-Briggs, and ‘Chima Onimin Lulu-Briggs.’
The defendants are Mrs Seinye Lulu-Briggs, Incorporated Trustees of the O.B. Lulu-Briggs Foundation, Rachael Lulu-Briggs, Solate Ovundah-Akarolo, Moni Pulo Ltd and the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC).
