How Obi Cubana's court case started

The dispute that the businessman, who marked his birthday a few months ago, is battling dates back to July 2025, when the High Court of the Federal Capital Territory, Gwagwalada, ruled that Onwuzulike, proprietor of SEMC Investment Ltd., was the legitimate owner.

According to court documents, he purchased the property from Reverend Chidiebere Amakaeze for ₦2 billion, supported by a Power of Attorney and Deed of Assignment executed with effect from May 1, 2024.

In its judgment, the court noted that despite completing the purchase and executing the transfer, the buyer had been unable to take possession of the building.

Justice J.A. Aina ordered the defendants to immediately vacate the premises and directed the Inspector General of Police and other security agencies to assist the rightful owner in taking possession.

However, the process was delayed after another group claiming interest in the property secured a temporary restraining order from the FCT High Court, Bwari.
