THUR, MAY. 04 2023-theGBJournal|Seplat Energy Plc Thursday confirmed its Annual General Meeting (AGM) will hold as scheduled on 10 May, 2023.
The energy company made the clarification following reports that a Federal High Court in Abuja has restrained it from holding the already scheduled meeting in a duplicated petition of FHC/ABJ/PET/8/2023 – Boniface Okezie & 4 others V. Seplat Energy & 9 others.
”These media reports are a deliberate attempt to misinform the public and misrepresent the court
proceedings, as the Court made no such order suspending the holding of the AGM. It is imperative to recall
from the Company’s Announcement of 28 April 2023 that the Court did not grant the Petitioners’ request to
restrain the Company from holding its AGM,” Seplat said in a statement seen by theGBJournal.
