Holding
The application is dismissed with no orders as to costs.
Facts
In 1997, the applicants filed a suit against the respondents seeking specific performance of an agreement of sale for the suit land. The applicants purchased the land from the 1st Respondent, who took possession after the sale. The respondents denied the applicants' claim, stating there was no sale and the applicants were merely tenants.
Issues
- Removal of prohibitory entries
- Authorisation for Deputy Registrar to execute transfer
- Renewal of expired leasehold
- Registration of documents
Reasoning
The court found the application without merit due to the respondents' failure to contest the application and the lack of evidence of a sale. The court also declined to issue orders to a stranger to the suit and to interfere with the National Land Commission's internal mechanisms for lease renewals.
Outcome
Application dismissed
