The 19th to 30th Annual General Meeting ( AGM) of the Okitipupa Oil Palm (OOP), plc scheduled earlier for Tuesday October 13, has been postponed indefinite­ly following a suit instituted at the Federal High Court, Akure by some land-owners who are also stakeholde­rs in the company.

Okitipupa Oil Palm, in a statement by the firm’s Acting Company Secretary, Yusuf Adeleke, apologised to the shareholde­rs and other stakeholde­rs for the postponeme­nt, which he said was in deference to the court which ordered that everything about the meeting should be held in abeyance pending the hearing of all applicatio­ns relating to the suit before the court on October 22,2020.

Adeleke assured all stakeholde­rs that a new date for the meeting would be released as soon as the court granted the firm permission to hold the AGM, which were in arrears.
