NICON Town residents and landowners are telling a Lagos court to ditch the legal procedure Harris Dredging Limited and Nicon Town Management Company chose for their ownership case over property in Lekki. The defendants want Justice Olukayode Ogunjobi to switch the whole thing from an originating summons to a writ of summons because they say the dispute involves fraud claims and messy historical ownership problems that need proper witness testimony.
Harris Dredging and NTMC filed suit against the Incorporated Trustees of the NICON Town Residents and Plot Owners Association, plus 14 homeowners, asking the court to confirm Harris Dredging holds title to roughly 5,899 square meters in the Community Centre Zone. The companies are also pushing to validate their 2010 Deed of Sub-Lease that got registered at the Lagos State Land Registry.
