Nigerian govt withdraws lawsuit against Seplat CEO, Roger Brown, chairman, directors

The Federal Government has withdrawn the lawsuit filed against Seplat Energy, the oil & gas company revealed in a statement on Thursday.

A week ago, Ripples Nigeria reported that the Federal Government sued Seplat Chief Executive Officer, Roger Brown, Chairman, Basil Omiyi, and some top director for conspiracy to breach the Immigration Act 2015.

The Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) accused the company of offering Brown, a foreigner, a job without the consent of the comptroller-general of immigration.
