“But I owe a duty to myself and to put the record straight for posterity about the big lie that Bola Tinubu built my house in Lekki for me. I, therefore, deny categorically that my house at Lekki was built with my resources through the sale of 3 developed properties, loan from GTBank and the sale of undeveloped landed property given me by my late leader Chief Obafemi Awolowo of blessed memory.

“It was later occupied by one of the wives Chief Pius Akinyelure, who often visit his wife there in the company of Senator Bola Tinubu. The gate of this property was forced open by Abacha security forces when NADECO was holding a sendoff party for American ambassador Walter Carrington in my house, I took the Federal Government to court for damages and I was awarded N1million which has not been paid till today by the Federal Government, Mr. Olisa Agbakoba SAN, was my counsel.

“He is still alive and he lives in one of the flats in the building. Four storey building with a warehouse on the ground floor and six flats on top. It was commissioned by Chief Awolowo in 1977. I inherited the plot of 45’X100’ from my mother Salamotu Anomo-Adebanjo, who built a bungalow on it.

These old men with drama. MBuhari called Akande a man of integrity and he forget he was the one that jailed Akande for corruption during his military days as president. Now Baba Akande is praising his former jailer as a good man🤣🤣🤣

Akande feeds from AsiwajuTinubu so don’t expect anything good or truthful from him. He wants to rubbish the elder states man because of Tinubu’s ambition.

2)...for posterity sake. His failure to come forward could only mean that Chief Bisi Akande's book was only about fallacies and lies directed at his political opponents.

1) And now that PaAdebanjo has denied that statement, even going to the extent of naming the engineers, architect etc, apart from how he raised the funds, it's now left for AsiwajuTinubu, the man at the centre to provide evidence that indeed he built the said house. At least..

Leave the man alone

Sirs, Pls don't wash your dirty linen outside. We are in a most critical time in this dear country of ours. Our esteemed elders should be finding solution(s) to our predicament not exchanging words on print and electronic media. What legacy are you bequeating to us?

😂🤣🤣😂😂
