at the Lands Registry as No. 2363/1984.<o:p></o:p>Plaintiff states
that before acquiring the land she conducted an unofficial search that showed
that the land was initially leased to Miracle Revival Temple Complex by the
Nmati Abonase family for a Church project.<o:p></o:p>And that the
family re-possessed the land from Miracle Revival Temple Complex when the
Church failed to use the land for a Church project and started selling same to
developers.<o:p></o:p>Plaintiff avers
further that the family after re-possessing the land sold part of it to one
Fred N. Y. Biney and the one in dispute to her.<o:p></o:p>Plaintiff further
states that she conducted an official search in July, 2012 which confirmed what
the family told her.<o:p></o:p>And that at the
time she acquired the land it was overgrown with bushes and trees and she had
to clear the land and fell the trees.<o:p></o:p>Plaintiff avers
that she started putting up a three bed room building on the land in 2012 and
by 2013 the building has reached the lintel level without any confrontation
from anyone.<o:p></o:p>Plaintiff avers
that in or about 13th January, 2013, the Defendant trespassed onto
her land and broke down part of her three bed room building for which reason
