Med-View kicks as First Bank storms airline, takes over property over N4bn debt

Med-View Airline has accused First Bank of breaching a court order over an alleged N4 billion debt owed by the airline company, after officials of the lenders stormed the company’s premises.

According to Med-View Airline, its properties located in Ikeja and Lekki were invaded on Monday by the bank officials along with police officers, informing the airline that they are executing a court order obtained by First Bank.

The counsel to Med-View Airline, Lawal Pedro (SAN), said the presence of First Bank violated the court proceedings, as the ex-parte order made by Hon Justice Lawal Akapo in Suit No. ID/6251/GCMW/22, and delivered on November 22, didn’t include possession of Med-View’s properties.
