27yrs after, Man floors KDSG agency in court, recovers property
A Kaduna based Engr. Augustine Aneke has recovered his property located at plot T 19 Katsina road, from state government agency identified as Kaduna Line Limited, formerly known as Kaduna State Transport Authority (KSTA) through a court judgement.
Aneke and the Kaduna Line Limited were parties to the case with a suit no: KDH/KAD/675/25, bordering on title and ownership to the property aforesaid.
The case which lingered for 27 years was determined by the Honorable Justice J A. Ambi of High Court, Kaduna state on the 17th November, 2025 in favour of Aneke, according to statement made available to newsmen Friday.
In the judgement, the Honorable court, found Aneke as the lawful and beneficial owner of the property.
Earlier, the Court of Appeal, Kaduna Division granted an Order of Perpetual Injunction restraining Kaduna Line Limited from interfering with the Aneke’s ownership and peaceful enjoyment of the property.
Unsatisfied with the Appeal Court decision, Kaduna Line Limited appealed to the apex court of the land, and in its wisdom, the apex court dismissed the appeal of the company.
Earlier on the 29th of April, 2014, the High Court of Justice of Kaduna State, declared Aneke as the rightful and beneficial owner of the property covered with Certificate of Occupancy (CfO) No. KD/2392, dated 29th August, 1998.
Fielding questions from newsmen, the lawyer to the Judgement Creditor (Aneke) Barr. Casmir Ugwoke, explained that the judgement was a well deliberated litigation which has taken longer time since 1999.
The matter emanated from the Kaduna state High Court up to the Court of Appeal, and the Supreme Court. “And in all of these, my client won. So, today, it calls for celebration,” Barr. Ugwoke said.
