This was revision by the Court of Appeal, suo motu, proceeded under section 4(3) of the Appellate Jurisdiction Act [Cap 141 R.E. 2002] and rule 65 of the Court of Appeal Rules, 2009. It concerned Misc. Civil Cause No. 5 of 2009 (the first Administration Petition), Misc. Civil Cause No. 112 of 2009 (the Second Administration Petition), Misc. Civil Cause No. 49 of 2002 (the Winding up or Unfair Prejudice Petition) and Misc. Civil Cause No. 254 of 2003 (the Arbitration Award Petition), the last two of which were consolidated by the High Court (Oriyo J. as she then was) on 31st July 2007. The crucial issue was whether or not an administrative petition is a proceeding against the company.
