Update on court case between Tinubu vs AIT - court grants Tinubu accelerated hearing

Read the press statement below...
In a motion Exparte filed before an Ikeja High Court on Friday March 6th 2015, the court granted an accelerated hearing for motion on notice in the case of defamatory and libelous documentary aired on DAAR Communications, AIT. The granted accelerated hearing comes up on Monday March 16, 2015.
The exparte motion brought before  Ikeja High Court - sought an order of interim injunction restraining  the respondent, AIT whether by itself, agents, privies and or other persons from producing  or continuing to broadcast, airing, or continuing to reproduce any defamatory documentary against the applicant which AIT started to broadcast on Sunday 1st of march , 2015 and has been repeating on a daily basis since then,
Pending the airing and determination of the motion on notice for interlocutory injunction dated 5th March ,2015  filed in this suit.
 
The motion further noted as a fact that damages would not adequately compensate applicant/claimant if this ex-parte order is not granted. It prayed that the res of this suit may be extinguished if the ex-parte order is not granted. That there is real, imminent and urgent threat and danger of continuing to decimate the person and integrity of the applicant by the respondent by continuing to air the offensive broadcast if the ex-parte motion is not granted. That unless this application is granted, the defendant will not relent or suspend the broadcast of the said libelous documentary and that it is in the interest of justice to grant this application.
 
The legal effect of the filing and notification of the pendency of a law suit under the legal doctrine of lis pendens is that all parties should exercise extreme caution particularly restraint in continuing with the act complained of. This is the minimal requirement of any law abiding citizen.

This duty also extends to other members of the society who are expected to refrain from aggravating the damage complained of or in any way contributing to the quantum of damage. It takes on a more compelling dimension in this instance where the claimant has applied for injunctive restraining orders against the material complained against.

The contrary can hardly be argued against the fact that affront to the judicial institution attracts criminal implications.
 The Tinubu legal team is led by Chief Wole Olanipekun, SAN. Dr. Tunji Abayomi is also part of the legal team.

the truth is that AIT has been disappointing to say the least,their coverage of this election has been skewed towards a particular side (PDP),i wonder if they would be particularly receptive to airing such disparaging documentaries if it was the opposition sponsoring it.this puts into question the real independence of our so called private television and radio stations.the documentaries have been defamatory.

After stealing all the Lagos money and converting public properties for your personal and selfish use, are these claims not visible for people to see? Don't worry there are more court cases that will come your way. Just be ready to bring out the stolen money to make cases. OLE BURUKUTU

Amazing, is this the kind of Government APC intends to run in a freedom of speech, freedom of press, freedom of information society? This (APC) people are tooooo temperamental, from there actions , there are not fit to govern a country with diversities like Nigeria in the twenty century. Is this how they will be dragging people to court or jail them for expressing their opinions! This guys are jokers, Nigerians shine your eyes ooo and vote wisely otherwise when it is time for you to face your agony don't complain. God have Marcy on your people oooo abeg.

For your information, going to court is the right and LEGAL way to go about sorting out issues. You probably don't know cos you've been living in a country led by a party of thieves and "I don't give a Damn" leaders (PDP).

I love Nigerians, cos even when they are poor and suffering; they are still defending Senator Tinubu primitive accumulation. But why don't you guys ask urself this question: are these allegation true, and if true, then Buhari and His father Tinubu (2015)should forget about fighting corruption, cos Tinubu is one of the most corrupt leader we ever had. Leave AIT out of it. Channels started it against President and PDP. I wish him Goodluck at the Court

LAGOS HIGH COURT ? A SURE PLAYGROUND FOR TINUBU AND FASHOLA.
WE WILL SEE THE REAL LEGAL FIRE WORK AT THE COURT OF APPEAL AFTER THE EXPECTED SOFT JUDGEMENT FROM THE LAGOS HIGH COURT.
TINUBU IS A BIG THIEF AND HE KNOWS.HE IS ONE OF THOSE CALLING FOR THE DOWN FALL OF THE PRESENT REGIME IF HIS PARTY DOES NOT WIN THE NEXT NATIONAL ELECTION.I HOPE IT WILL HAPPEN SO THAT THE ARMY WILL RETURN, WE WILL SEE WHO WILL RUN AWAY OR STAY BACK IN NIGERIA.OLE BURUKU.

U people are idiots.if its ur father that is being destroyed in public eye tell him to be tolerant. Even if Tinubu is a thief I prefer him to a bigger thief than Jonathan.

Tinubu don,t know that this court case will make the documentary more populer , it,s like banning a movie that,s not known by people after the ban everybody will want to watch it . I gues his lawyers want there own share of the loot. TOCHMAN

i have watched the offensive documentry. For me it raised more question than anwere. One who are the faceless sponsors of the documentry and why are they hiding their identity. Two if they have evidence to prove their alligation why not prosecute him in court, instead of media propaganda.

Anonymous said...

Perhaps you have short memories and lack good knowledge of realities, for you to criticize a detailed and factual documentary as this shows how shortsighted and myopic you are. For your information my father can never be a thief, Tinubu is a gullible criminal and should be treated as one. You can choose to remain blind to your fault, that is your choice.
