Emeka
had in 2007 diversified by establishing a secondary school named St
Nicholas College and decided to hire the premises on a five-year lease
agreement from an 87-year-old retiree, Chief Samuel Agboola Akintan at
the rate of N2 million per annum for the first two years and N3 million
annually for the remaining three years, bringing the total rent of five
years to N13 million.
Reports have it that Emeka was able to get his landlord accept a deposit of N2 million with a promise to pay the rest later. Trouble, however, started when a year after moving in, the popular Actor began to default and at a point issued a dud cheque of N1.5 million.
To force Emeka to pay his money and eject him from the property, Chief Akintan through his company, Samak Investments Ltd, had to drag the Actor to the Ikeja Magistrate court where he was ordered out of the house.
