Officials of the Execution Unit of the Federal Capital Territory High Court in Abuja, working with officers of the Nigeria Police Force, have seized vehicles belonging to Senator Andy Uba in his Abuja residence over a N50 million debt resulting from a loan he took from Oranto Petroleum Limited.
Uba, a one-time three-day Governor of Anambra State, and a governorship candidate of the All Progressive Congress in the recently concluded elections in Anambra, is the debtor, in a case instituted against him by Oranto Petroleum.
The seizure of Uba’s property was sequel to the judgment of an Anambra State High Court delivered on March 6, 2017, in a case presided over by Justice Mbonu Nwenyi of the Aguata Judicial Division Ekwulobia.
In his ruling, the judge held that Uba as the defendant in the case had not denied receiving the friendly interest-free loan from the plaintiff.
