A Lagos High Court has vacated an interim injunction on Niger towers, a highrise apartment complex with 36 units in Ikoyi, Lagos. In a ruling last week, Justice Ezekiel Oluwole Ashade said, the interim injunction was granted without proper disclosure of relevant facts or concealment of material. He noted that by the order the second respondent could only carry out improvement in Blocks A and B without affecting the common area as contained in the deed of sublease. The application for the lifting of the interim order was brought pursuant to Orders 5,7,43 and 49 of the High Court of Lagos State Civil Procedure Rules of 2019 and under the inherent jurisdiction of the court. The interim order, the applicants contended grossly infringed on the constitutional right of the 2nd and third respondents/applicant to fair hearings amongst others.
