The Ogun State High Court sitting in Sagamu yesterday directed former Governor Gbenga Daniel to present the necessary documents requested by the state government.

At the resumed hearing of Suit No: HCS/371/2025, Otunba Justus Gbenga Daniel and Anor vs. the Governor of Ogun State and Others, Justice O. S. Oloyede ordered Daniel to submit his papers to the government in line with the request made to him and other residents in the area.

O.T. Olaotan, Solicitor General and Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Justice, who represented the government alongside R.B. Kadiri (DCL), A.E. Odukoya, and W.A. Onawole, informed the court that an interlocutory injunction and counter-affidavits had been filed in response to Daniel’s motion and served on the claimants’ counsel.

The counsel noted that the matter was not yet ripe for hearing and that the court was not inclined to take the application. However, A.O. Kotoye (SAN), with O.T. Are and A.O. Adeniyi for the claimants, applied for an extension of the interim order previously granted, which was set to automatically expire after seven days.

The defence argued that the court should order the claimants/applicants to take advantage of the two-week extension announced by the government and furnish the Ministry of Physical Planning with the requested documents, noting that others served with the same notices had complied.

Justice Oloyede thereafter asked the parties to maintain the status quo and urged them to explore settlement options. He further directed the claimants/applicants to submit the relevant documents to the government agency as requested.

Counsel for both the claimants and defendants agreed to adjourn the matter to October 13, 2025, for the hearing of the pending applications.
