Justice Iyabo Akinkugbe of the Ikeja Lagos High court on Friday fixed April 1 for ruling on the interlocutory application filed by the National leader of All Progressives Congress, Asiwaju Ahmed Bola Tinubu against Africa Independent Television (AIT).

Tinubu had dragged the television station owned by Chief Raymond Dopkesi before the court alleging that a documentary broadcast by the station, titled ‘Lion of Bourdillion’ was libellous and aimed at tarnishing his image.

Tinubu through ex-parte motion sought an order of interim injunction restraining AIT whether by itself, agents, privies and or other persons from producing or continuing to broadcast, airing, or continuing to reproduce the documentary.

The motion also sought to restrain the TV station from continuing the broadcast of the documentary, which it started airing on March 1st and had been repeating daily, pending the hearing and determination of the motion on notice dated March 5, 2015.
