COURT ORDERS ARRESTS OF FORMER PERM SEC’S WIDOW OVER PROERTY DISPUTE

   

This may not be the best of time for a society woman, Mrs Folashade Abiodun Omotade and widow of a former permanent secretary in the Federal civil service, Mr. Deji Omotade, who has a bench warrant order by a Lagos High Court, Ikeja handing on her. The bench warrant is unconnected with a supremacy battle in the management of the estate of the deceased. With the order recently made by Justice L.A.F Oluyemi, a criminal angle has been introduced into the litigation, which started as civil matter within the family. Following the death of Deji omotade, there have been allegations, as a divide of the family accuses the other of illegally single-handedly dealing with the family property at the detriment of the other divide. Attempts made different times to amicably resolve their differences have met brick wall, thus a resort to the court for adjudication. According to a court process obtained by the Guardian, which reads ‘In The matter the Estate of Late Mr. Olaseni Ayodeji Omotade of 34b Ramat crescent, ogudu, G.R.A., Ikeja, Lagos who Died on 22^nd October, 2005’, the first wife, Mrs. Grace Omotade along with her children Miss Oluwafumilayo, Miss Oluwaseun and Miss Onikepo Omotade sued another wife of Omotade, Folashade, Miss Yewande Omotade, The Probate Registrar of both Lagos and Ogun state and Miss Joyce Oluwsoji Olupitan.
