He affirmed that the former president’s expanse of land in the area was duly purchased from their forefathers and documents to it handed over to him.

 

The Baale, who spoke at a press conference in Abeokuta, also condemned the litigation steps taken by those described as disgruntled elements against Obasanjo’s brother, Chief Abraham Idowu Akanle, and his wife.

 

Responding to the litigation instituted by one Nurudeen Akapo, Chief Taoreed Momodu Dada Sunday, Mathew Owotolu and Alh. Monsuru Ashifatu Yusuf before Ogun State High Court Ota, Fashina said the publication where the litigation story was published contained falsehoods and lack of facts, hence the need for this news conference.

 

On the allegation that Obasanjo had not contributed to the development of Itele, Fashina said it will be only unfair for anyone to make such a statement.
