The petitioner lawyer, Kazeem Afolabi, informed the court that he has filed a notice of discontinuance of the suit, on the ground that parties have reached ‘settlement’.

 

He therefore urged the court to strike out the winding-Up suit.

After listening to the lawyer, Justice Lewis-Allagoa struck out the suit.

 

The petitioner had asked the court to declare Primero insolvent in a Winding-Up Petition marked FHC/L/CP/1702/20, filed in pursuant to Order 19, Rule 1, of the Company Winding-Up Rules 2001, and under the Court’s inherent jurisdiction.

 

The petitioner was seeking the leave of the court to advertise the petition in the Gazette and in a national newspaper.
