Wale Tinubu is currently in court challenging the decision of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to remove him and his deputy from the energy company.
The capital market regulator had in May announced the result of its investigations into the operations of Oando and said both Tinubu and Omomofe Boyo, his deputy were found culpable of infractions in the operations of the energy firm.
SEC had ordered the resignation of the two key officials of the energy company and appointed an interim management team to supervise the setting up of a new management for Oando and hold its Annual General Meeting (AGM).
However, Oando and Tinubu have filed a case in court to nullify the decision of the market regulator, saying SEC failed the test of fair hearing.

Court Dissolves Marriage Over Husband's Inability To Get Wife Pregnate

A Grade “C” Customary Court, sitting in Iseyin, Oyo State, on Wednesday dissolved a five-year-old marriage between Afeez and Abibat Imran over his alleged impotence.

Abibat had approached the court in December 2018, seeking divorce.
The complainant told the court that she had endured enough and wanted to path ways with her estranged husband.
“We have been together for five years now; before now, he could still perform just that we can’t make babies, but now he can’t do anything at all.
“I have really suffered in silence and now, I have to move on with my life and the first step is for him to make way for a capable person who can make me a mother,” she said.
She revealed that the development had made her to park out of their matrimonial home.
In his response, Afeez, who did not deny that he was impotent as claimed by his wife, said he was already receiving treatment from competent hands.
He said that he would soon be fine again.
“I want this court to appeal to her as I have spent so much on fixing this problem, I do not want her to go, please help plead to her.
“But if she insist on the dissolution, then she should bring back some of my belongings that she parked along with her own when she was leaving,” he said.
Delivering judgment, President of the Court, Chief Adelodun Raheem, frowned at Afeez’s absence when the case was ongoing.
He said evidence before the court had shown that love no longer existed between the estranged couple he, thereafter, dissolved the union accordingly.

Return my virginity if you want divorce — Wife tells husband

A 28-year-old woman, Suliat Toriola, on Wednesday told her husband, Toriola Lateef, that she would only consent to his request for the dissolution of their marriage if he returns her virginity and good health, as she was two years ago before the union.

Suliat stated her conditions before an Iseyin Grade C Customary Court, where the husband had gone seeking for the dissolution of the marriage over “frequent public embarrassment.”
He told the Court that Suliat was in the habit of harassing him at his work place and social functions attended by his friends and relatives.
The husband said he had to move out of their matrimonial home due to the unbearable development.
Responding, Suliat said she was charmed by Toriola before she agreed to marry him.
“Ideally I will not marry this type of human being, if not for the charm he used on me.
“I was looking for charm to help my business grow and he told me that he will need to get some hairs from my private part and also make love to me. That was how I found myself married to him.
“When I got to his house, my business boomed and he also made lot of money too and we got it renewed twice but now my health is deteriorating and he now moved out of the house.
“He must look for a way to return my virginity and my health, before he can say he wants to leave me.”
Ruling on the matter, the President of the Court, Raheem Adelodun, said the case would be put on hold until the health condition of Suliat improves.
He ordered the families of the estranged couple to seek urgent medical help for Suliat and update the Court every 15 days.
