A LAWSUIT has been filed by some of the Nigerian students in Barbados.

This was revealed by their attorney, Douglas Trotman, who said he could not discuss the details of the suit because it was a “without notice application”, meaning that parties being sued had not yet been served.

Trotman told the MIDWEEK NATION he informed Delta State’s Attorney General Charles Ajuya about the court action as he expressed concern that attempts were still being made to repatriate eight of the students.

“I believe the Nigerian citizens who are here in Barbados indicated to the officials from Delta State what their intentions were . . . I met with the officials yesterday and informed them that an application had been filed in court by the students. It is a without notice application, so I couldn’t give more details than that,” Trotman revealed. (MB)
