Cars belonging to the 2021 All Progressive Congress (APC) Anambra State governorship candidate, Andy Uba have been siezed.
The Nigeria Police Force on Tuesday stormed the former Senator’s seized Abuja residence of Number 49, T.Y Danjuma Street, Asokoro and impounded his cars over a N50million debt which is a loan he reportedly took from Oranto Petroleum Limited years ago.
Oranto Petroleum which is a pan-African oil exploration and production company owned by Nigerian businessman, Arthur Eze, filed a suit against Senator Uba in 2016, before Justice Mbonu Nwenyi of the Aguata Judicial Division Ekwulobia of the Anambra State High Court.
On March 6, 2017, Justice Nwenyi in his ruling held that Senator Uba did not deny receiving the interest-free loan from Oranto Petroleum.
PUNCH quoted Justice Nwenyi in the ruling as stating that “The Plaintiff has sufficiently shown that she granted interest-free friendly loan to the defendant which has not been denied and since has not been repaid.
“In the circumstances I enter judgment for the plaintiff in the sum of N50 million being refund of interest-free loan granted to the defendant by the plaintiff at the request of the defendant.”
It was then gathered that execution of the court order took place in Abuja following a motion ex parte dated May 5, 2022, filed on the same date by the plaintiff, praying the court for some reliefs and subsequent order of the FCT High Court dated June 30, 2022.
The subsequent court order read, “Leave is hereby granted the plaintiff/judgment creditor/applicant to register the certificate of judgment of the High Court of Anambra State in the Aguata Judicial Division holden at Ekwulobia and delivered by Hon. (Justice) C.N. Mbonu-Nwenyi on the 6th day of March, 2017 in suit no. AG/94/2016:Oranto Petroleum Ltd Vs Senator Nnamdi Emmanuel Andy Uba as the judgment of this Court.
“An order of this Honourable Court deeming the judgment of the High Court of Anambra State in the Judicial Division holden at Ekwulobia and delivered by Hon. (Justice) C.N. Mbonu-Nwenyi on the 6th day of March, 2017 in suit no. AG/94/2016: Oranto Petroleum Ltd VS Senator Nnamdi Emmanuel Andy Uba as the judgment of this Court is hereby granted.
“An order of the Honourable Court directing the cost of the registration and execution of the judgment to be recoverable from the Defendant/Judgment Debtor/Respondent to an amount assessed by the Court in the circumstances of this case is hereby granted.
“The order was issued in Abuja, under the seal of the court and the hand of the presiding judge this 30th day of June 2022.”
It was in compliance with the court order that the officials of the Execution Unit of the FCT High Court working with the Nigeria Police stormed Senator Uba’s Abuja residence on Tuesday and seized his vehicles.
