A High Court sitting in Kaduna has restrained the Kaduna State Urban Planning and Development Agency and its agents from building on a plot of land belonging to Senator Suleiman Hunkuyi.
The Court ordered cessation of actions on the land located at plot 11B Sambo Road, Unguwan Rimi, Kaduna, pending the determination of a suit before it.
The property was seized by the State Geographic Information Service.
The building was demolished on the order of the state government over the alleged failure of the lawmaker to settle several years of ground rent.
Justice H. T. D. Gwadah, who gave the order, adjourned until October 23 for hearing in the case.
