2 Min Read

Uduak Effiong, a pastor of Christ Embassy in Abuja has been ordered to vacate his apartment and pay the indebted sum of N2.7m.

The four-bedroomed semi-detached duplex is said to be located at 5th Avenue, 24th Street, Block D 20, Flat 2 in Games Village, Abuja.

Uduak, a banker and Chairman of Gufax Microfinance Bank in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State, is also the Chief Executive of Gufax Bureau de Change, Messrs Faduk Resources Industries Limited and many other companies.

Delivering judgment in a suit with Number CV/54/18 filed by Neth and Etua Limited, Senior Magistrate Ahmed Ndajiwo  of the Senior Magistrates’ Court in nation’s capital, also awarded N50,000 cost against him.

The judgment read: “That the defendant shall deliver vacant possession forthwith to the plaintiff, the four-bedroomed semi-detached duplex with appurtenances thereto lying and suites at 5th Avenue, 24th Street, Block D 20, Flat 2 in Games Village, Abuja, FCT.

“That the defendant pays the plaintiff the sum of N225,000 only monthly, being manse profit and commencing from October 1, 2018 until possession is given up by the defendant.

“Ten per cent of the judgment sum as interest is awarded to the plaintiff for the use and occupation of the said premises by the defendant from the date of the judgment until liquidated.

“And based upon the judgment of exhibit C, before the court which was not controverted, I will award the cost of N50,000 against the defendant for the plaintiff in this suite.”

But Uduak, through his lawyer, Benjamin Nwaokenye, has gone to the FCT High Court seeking an order for the stay of further execution of the judgment delivered by the lower court.

He begged to retake his seized 20KVA sound-proof generator set, a sport-utility vehicle, cooking gas and deep freezer.
