You need a lawyer. If your friend is not cooperative, this will likely involve litigation.

You may end up having to file a lawsuit to accomplish this, but initially, the internal documentation of the company - by-laws, shareholders agreement, etc. - will determine your rights and obligations.

Any attorney will say more information is needed. How are you associated with the corporation? Are you a shareholder, an officer, etc? If an officer, you many just need to resign. Consult with an attorney in your area for specifics.
