<h2>Lateef Lawal, the husband of Nollywood actress, <a href="https://www.naijanews.com/topic/Lizzy-Anjorin/">Lizzy Anjorin, </a>is currently embroiled in a land-grabbing dispute.</h2>
<p><strong>Naija News</strong> reports that files from the Magistrate Court in Oyingbo Ebute-Metta listed Lawal among individuals sued for demolishing structures on a property owned by one Faith Ojo.</p>
<p>Lawal purportedly escaped arrest in Ikoyi, Lagos State, on February 5, 2024, while his associate was apprehended and sent to prison.</p>
<p>Involved in the case is one Alhaji Sulaimon of Okun-Ajah, Eti-Osa, Lagos State, and others.</p>
<p>Ojo, in the lawsuit, is identified as a Nigerian businesswoman based in the United States.</p>
<p>The land with plan no “AGA/2582/037J/2020/LA”, the claimant revealed, is located in Okun-Ajah, Eti-Osa Lagos</p>
<p>Among the defendants are Rasheed Olukosi, Muniru Olukosi, Saheed Olukosi, Kareem Wasiu Jagun, Sulaimon Bolaji, Muritala Musbau, and Kehinde Jagun.</p>
<p>They were accused alongside Lawal of demolishing some structures on the land in what Ojo described as “land grabbing” in her suit.</p>
<p>Ojo sought N30 million as compensation and asked that the defendants cover both the cost of litigation and petitioning the police</p>
<p>She sought a “perpetual injunction” against the defendants “from entering, developing, and occupying” the two-plot land.</p>
<p>The case against Lawal is coming against the backdrop of accusations claiming that his wife, Lizzy Anjorin allegedly made a fake mobile banking transfer in a Lagos store.</p>
