High Court Judgement: Confusion, as another family lays claim to Agidingbi land vanguardngr.com vanguardnews
Just as the dust raised by Akinole-Oshiun family last week over the ownership of landed property spread across Agidingbi and its environs is yet to settle, Ashamu family at the weekend claimed it owns some of the landed property within the areas being claimed by Akinole-Oshiun family following Lagos High Court’s decision that conferred ownership of the said property to it.
It contended that the Akinole Family “was not only aware of the 7,300 acres global land acquisition of the land by the Lagos State government in 1969 but are parties in the Originating Summons subsequently taken out by the Lagos State Government in Suit No. LTILS/35/89 to determine the persons entitled to compensation in respect of the 356.442 hectares of land acquired, including the land in Agidingbi Village, under the compulsory public acquisition of 1969”.
Counsel to Akinole-Oshiun family, Ayo Opadokun & Co, last week claimed a Lagos High Court had given judgement that hundreds of landed property in Agidingbi, Magodo, Ogba, Ikeja and others, belonged to Akinole-Oshiun family. The representative noted that when there was a dispute between the original owner of the land, the Ashade family who sold the land to the late Chief Emmanuel Ashamu, and Akinole-Oshiun family, the late Ashamu persuaded the Ashade family not to go to court.
He added that so, by the above history, and other supporting summary of root of titles, the Akinole family has conveyed all its interest in some of the land at Agidingbi, stressing that this is what informed this warning that public should be wary of making any transaction over the affected property without ascertaining which one belongs to Akinole and the ones that belong to Ashamu family.
Akano listed the areas on which property had been built to include Alhaja Ashabi Cole, Hakeem Balogun and LTV Way, MKO Abiola Way, Sections of IPM Road, Otunba Jobifele Way and Adeleye Street. “The Akinole Oshiun family had secured favourable judicial pronouncements /judgements from the Lagos High Court to the Court of Appeal and the Supreme Court finally on the 398 acres in May 2010.
