A Lagos businessman Mr Gerald Chukwueke and four other persons has dragged Pastor Adefarasin and the Incoporated Trustees of the Rock Foundation before a Lagos state High Court over trespass on a piece of land in the Lekki area of Lagos State.
Chukwueke alongside Chinelo Chukwueke, Mrs Martha Chukwueke, Germaine Logistics Limited and Germaine Auto Center Limited are seeking damages in the sum of N800m from the defendants.
On March 17, 2016 the applicants obtained an order of interim injunction restraining the defendants from further trespassing on the disputed land pending the hearing of their motion on notice which they said the defendants began trespassing since January
Justice Akinlade, who made the order, barred the defendants from “demolishing or removing any structure whatsoever be they temporary or permanent on the applicants’ premises located at plots 15, 16, 17 and 18 located at 188 Ikate, Lekki, Lagos.
The applicants are claiming that the that Deed of Assignment executed by Daiamond Bank Plc which gave ownership of the land to Eock Foundation was false
