A Kaduna State High Court on Tuesday, adjourned to February 4, 2021 the case involving late Sani Abacha’s family and Kaduna State government over Durbar Hotel for the report on out of court settlement.
The court had on January 21, 2020 restrained Governor Nasir El-Rufai and agencies of the Kaduna State government from demolishing and taking over Durbar Hotel, but the order was not obeyed to as the hotel was completely demolished.

It was, however, reported to court on February 26, 2020 by counsel to the management of the hotel and Abacha family, Mr Atabo, that Governor el-Rufai and other government agencies had complied with the court order asking them to keep off the demolished hotel owned by the family of the late head of state.
The court then adjourned the matter for the report on compliance with court order by Governor el-Rufai and government officials.
