GTB takes over Stallion assets in Lagos over N13bn debt

Guaranty Trust Bank (GTB) says it has taken over the assets of Nigeria Limited in Lagos and its sister firms after the firm reportedly failed to pay a debt of N13bn.

The Receiver/Manager appointed by Guaranty Trust Bank (GTB), Mr. Temilolu Adamolekun, disclosed this as the fallout of the N13 billion judgment debt in suit FHC/L/CS/2/47/2019 of the Federal High Court in Lagos.

The Receiver/Manager’s officials and court bailiffs, protected by policemen, took over the firm’s Victoria Island office and showroom containing several exotic automobiles.

The brands of vehicles recovered from the premises included Porsche, Audi, Volkswagen, Skoda, Hyundai and Hyundai among others.

The court on December 2, 2019 granted the Receiver/Manager leave to take possession of the assets of Stallion and the landed properties of its sister firms in line with the Deed of All Assets Debenture and several Deeds of Legal Mortgage.

According to the court documents, this followed Stallion Nigeria’s default in meeting its repayment obligations to GTB.
