Court affirms Julius Bobi as national president of motorcycle operators union

A Wuse Zone 6 Magistrates’ Court Abuja has affirmed Julius Bobi as the National President of motorcycle operators union of Nigeria.

The Chief Magistrate, Emmanuel Iyanna, in a ruling, issued an order compelling the motorcycle operators to recognise Mr Bobi as the authentic national president of the association.

In the Certified True Copy of the ruling, the magistrate said:”it is only expedient in the interest of justice to so grant this application and this I do hold , the application is hero granted as prayed in the interim.’’

He held that Mr Bobi remained the national president of the union and to the exclusion of any other person, pending the hearing and determination of the motion on notice already filed in the court with suit no CV/85/2024.

The union and nine others had sought the order of the court due to a leadership crisis ongoing in the union.

Counsel to the union, Femi Ekundayo, had sought for an order of the court stopping the defendant, Sotayo Olusola, from parading himself as the union president, as servant or private agent to Mr Bobi.

He prayed the court to stop the defendant from printing illegal tickets and to remit all revenue already generated from sales of tickets paid into his personal account to be moved into the union corporate account.

He sought an order of the court that revenues should be remitted to the union’s Eco Bank account prohibiting the use of personal account for remittance of any revenue generated by the union.

The court however, considered the prayers of the counsel to the union and ordered the parties maintain status quo pending the hearing and determination of the motion on notice already filed in the suit.
