The Court of Appeal in Abuja rules in favour of Fidelity Bank Plc in a fundamental rights case brought by Michael Kundera. A three-member panel led by Justice Adebukola Banjoko delivers the judgment on 14 September.

The appellate court overturns an earlier decision by the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) High Court, which had found Fidelity Bank liable. Sources agree the Court of Appeal allows Fidelity Bank’s appeal and dismisses the underlying claim for liability in the fundamental rights matter.

Across the outlets provided, the reporting focuses on the same outcome: Fidelity Bank is cleared of liability, the High Court judgment is set aside, and the Court of Appeal panel led by Justice Banjoko gives the final ruling on the stated date. No additional factual details about the allegations or broader legal reasoning are included in the excerpts.
