The Supreme Court has fixed November 1 for a definite hearing in the legal battle between Rivers and Imo states over the ownership of 17 oil wells.
The apex court had on July 14 granted an order of injunction stopping an alleged implementation of the ceding of 17 oil wells to Imo state, pending the determination of the suit brought before it by the Rivers state government.
The Court also barred the Revenue Mobilisation Allocation and the Fiscal Commission, RMAFC, and the office of the Accountant General of the Federation from approving, implementing or giving effect in any manner to a letter from the RMAFC office, which canceled the equal sharing of proceeds from the 17 oil wells by the two states.
