Eniola Akinkuotu, AbujaThe lawsuit instituted against All Progressives Congress chieftain, Bola Tinubu, and tax consultancy firm, Alpha Beta Consulting, by a former Managing Director of Alpha Beta, Dapo Apara, has suffered a setback due to the burning of the Lagos State High Court in Igbosere in the wake of the #EndSARS protests. Apara’s lawyer, Mr. Tade Ipadeola, stated this during an interview with The PUNCH on Tuesday. He said, “Everything in Igbosere High Court got burnt including the registrar’s copy of our application. Apara stated that Tinubu was furious that he was looking into the company’s finances and this led to his demotion and eventual exit. The firm said Apara’s allegations levelled against Tinubu were specious and diversionary.
