WHO WOULD OWN IT ? COURT ORDER AIRTEL TO REVERT TO ECONET

Okay! How am I going to tell this story. Okay I'll put it like this;



Let's say I know this guy who knows someone who works in one of the companies just mentioned, now this person told me that while he was working he received word that his company is on the brink of a name change,and should it happen - this would be the fastest change in a series of popular changes.



From major News sources Econet Wireless Limited(worldwide) was never a party to the sale of Econet Nigeria in 2003 and has since been pursuing legal means to reclaim their ownership (holding rights) in the Nigerian company that was being managed at the time by company chairman Oba Otedola before it was sold to Celtel Africa.



NOW - Today saw the end of the legal battle that has lasted almost a decade as the Federal High Court ordered Airtel to revert to its initial name "Econet". The court also nullified all transactions concerning change of ownership since 2003 as these actions were not carried out together with Econet Wireless.



At this point am really confused about what's going on over there, will this mean Econet will take over ? Or will Airtel continue business in Nigeria as an Econet owned company? Whatever the case, am sure the answers will soon be clear for everyone to see, for now Airtel is still trying to appeal the judgement about Econet's capacity to own the Nigerian company.

VIOLENCE IN CROSS RIVER LEAVES 30 DEAD INCLUDING VILLAGE RULER AND 4 POLICEMEN

30 people were allegedly killed while four police officers and the village head of Ntan Obu Ukpe in Eniong in Odukpani local government area of Cross River State were beheaded in a communal clash between the Ntan Obu and the Ikpanya in Ibiono local government area of Akwa Ibom State on Tuesday. According to a local newspaper, about 2,000 indigenes of Ntan Obu were forced to take refuge in nearby communities of Odukpani council as many houses including churches were destroyed during the crisis. The Chairman of Odukpani Local council, Stephen Asuquo, while confirming the incident, told journalists that the people of Ntan Obu were attacked by the Ikpanaya neighbouring community of Akwa Ibom State, last week. "The remote cause, I can say, is the struggle by people from the Ikpanya for the land that belongs to the Ntan Obu.Ikpanya is in Ibiono council of Akwa Ibom State while Ntan Obu is in Odukpani council in Cross River State," he said.
