E-Naira: CBN denies competing with banks

Reject Ecobank's request, Oba Otudeko's attorneys encourage FBN



Wole Olanipekun & Co, the legal representatives of Dr. Oba Otudeko, have urged FBN Holdings to disregard a petition presented by Ecobank's lawyers, which calls for the rejection of 4.7 billion shares acquired by the entrepreneur.

In a letter issued on Wednesday, the law firm refuted Ecobank's claims that a Supreme Court judgment supported their position that Otudeko owed them a sum of N13.5 billion.

The letter stated, "The amount of N13,507,052,417.99 (thirteen billion, five hundred and seven million, fifty-two thousand, four hundred and seventeen naira, ninety-nine kobo) mentioned in Ecobank's letter was not mentioned in the Supreme Court decision or any existing court decision in Nigeria or elsewhere."

Further details will be provided at a later time.
