UK-based private investigator sues Andy Uba over £1.9m debt, accuses senator of certificate forgery

Senator Andy Uba (Anambra South) has been sued over his alleged refusal to pay £1.9 million debt. 
In the suit filed before a High Court of the Federal Capital Territory, the plaintiff, Evangelist Victor Uwajeh, a private investigator based in the United Kingdom, through his lawyer, Mr. Anthony Agbonlahor, accused Uba of non-payment of his professional fees for services rendered by him pursuant to his two power of attorneys dated 28 December, 2012 and 5 January, 2013. 
Also in the suit, the plaintiff accused Uba of being an impostor in relation to his academic credentials.  
In the suit marked CV/2063/16, the plaintiff told the court how Senator Uba forged his West African Examination Council Certificate (WAEC) results as well as his Concordia University in Montreal, Canada and several other academic credentials. 
According to Uwaje in the suit, Uba engaged his services for an assignment in United Kingdom Border Agency and in the United States (U.S.). 
The plaintiff said in order to make the work easier for him, Uba gave him the data pages of both his American passport and Nigerian passport. 
“The American passport has number 447634761 which expires February 28, 2018 while the Nigerian passport has A04241210 and it is to expire September, 2017.”
The plaintiff said in executing the mandate, he travelled to the U.S. several times and engaged the services of a lawyer who was mandated to attend every court session in the U.S. to dispose off a warrant of arrest and eventually settle the case which was instituted by the U.S. government against Uba.
According to the court process before the FCT High Court in Abuja, the case against the defendant in the U.S. court relates to his property at 7012 N. LA Tijera Blvd, Los Angeles, California, constituting a health hazard as the building was dilapidated and over-grown with weeds, reptiles and insects. 
“Despite being served notices to abate the nuisance, the defendant refused. The house was being inhabited by one of his wives and other family members even in that appalling state,” the plaintiff said in the suit before the High Court.
The plaintiff said he successfully discharged his obligation to the defendant in relation to the case referred to but has not being paid his fees. 
At the resumed proceedings on Thursday before presiding judge, Justice Sylvester Origi, the matter could not proceed as the defendant did not file his statement of defence. 
The judge further adjourned the suit till April 27, 2017 to enable Uba file his statement of defence.
