“That I know as a fact that the petitioner founded a company called TannkCo in 2019.
“That the petitioner and the respondent agreed to build a mall where TannkCo would have its main offices, and the petitioner contributed N10,000,000.00 (Ten Million Naira) for the purchase of the land and the building of the mall.

Anita, however, chose to drop the allegations and settle instead after allegedly failing to support each one of them in her court case.
As a result, on October 20, 2022, the court awarded the parties shared custody of the kids in its ruling.
