Abuja — Officials of the FCT High Court Enforcement Unit have taken possession of the premises housing Cash Flow by Cubana, a popular nightlife spot linked to businessman Obi Cubana, following the execution of a court judgment in a long-running property dispute in Abuja.
The enforcement action, which took place at Plot 81, Ademola Adetokunbo Crescent, Wuse II, saw court sheriffs hand over the property to a party adjudged by the court to be the lawful owner. The development has since sparked widespread reactions on social media, with conflicting claims about demolition of the structure and alleged losses running into hundreds of millions of naira.
However, verified reports confirm only the court-ordered eviction and transfer of possession, not the demolition of the building. There is also no independent evidence to support viral claims that assets valued at about ₦800 million, including expensive wines, were destroyed or permanently lost during the enforcement exercise.
The case reportedly stems from a protracted ownership dispute, in which the court ruled in favour of a claimant who presented documents showing lawful purchase of the property. Based on the judgment, enforcement officers were mandated to execute vacant possession, leading to the sealing and takeover of the premises.
Sources familiar with the matter say the enforcement followed due legal process after all avenues of appeal were exhausted. While some social media posts allege that the club operator was not given an opportunity to remove items from the premises, no official court document or credible media report has substantiated this claim.
As of the time of filing this report, neither Obi Cubana nor the Cubana Group has issued an official statement detailing the extent of losses or clarifying the status of equipment and inventory formerly kept at the club. Legal observers note that disputes over movable assets following eviction are typically addressed through separate legal claims, if any party believes due process was breached.
The development highlights the risks associated with property and tenancy disputes, particularly in high-value commercial locations within the Federal Capital Territory. Analysts say the case serves as a reminder to investors and business owners to ensure airtight documentation and clear ownership structures before committing significant capital to real estate developments.
While public sympathy has trailed the incident online, experts caution against spreading unverified figures and claims, stressing that only court records and official statements should guide public understanding of the situation.
For now, the confirmed position remains that the property has been lawfully repossessed under a court order, with other sensational claims yet to be proven.
