Ikoyi High-rise Collapse: Osinbajo Saddened, Condoles With Affected Families by TheRareGem1(f): 11:28am On Nov 05, 2021 |
STATE HOUSE PRESS RELEASE IKOYI HIGH-RISE COLLAPSE: OSINBAJO SADDENED, CONDOLES WITH AFFECTED FAMILIES & DEBUNKS DESPICABLE LIES IN SPONSORED ONLINE REPORT *VP has no interest whatsoever in said property *All his property, assets already publicly declared Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, SAN, is saddened by the events that occurred in Lagos on Monday, 1st of November 2021, where a high-rise building under construction on Gerrard Road, Ikoyi, collapsed. He condoles with the families and relatives of all those who have died, were injured or affected in the collapse. Prof. Osinbajo considers this painful loss of lives a horrible tragedy. Also, the attention of the Vice President has been drawn to an obviously sponsored falsehood regarding the recently collapsed building published by Sahara Reporters on November 4th, 2021, to the effect that: 1. The VP owns the land upon which the collapsed building in Ikoyi stood. 2. That the said land was sold to him by Chief Michael Ade. Ojo, Chairman of Elizade Motors; and 3. That the Vice President, at some point, intervened with the regulatory authorities in Lagos State to unseal the said property. Let it be made absolutely clear that Prof. Yemi Osinbajo does not own and has never owned the said land. He has also never been involved, in any shape or form, in the development of this or any other land since he became Vice President. At no time whatsoever did the VP buy this or any other piece of land from Chief Michael Ade. Ojo, or entered into any transaction for the sale of that land or any other piece of land from Chief Ade. Ojo or anyone for that matter. All property and assets owned by the Vice President have been publicly declared. Also, the Vice President has never spoken to the Governor of Lagos State or any other official of the State Government regarding the unsealing of the said building on Gerrard Road, Ikoyi, which subsequently collapsed. He has, indeed, never acted to influence any other regulatory action on the collapsed building, or any other building for that matter, in Lagos State. The Vice President restates categorically that he has no interest whatsoever, and has never had any interest, either legally or beneficially, in the land, the building or development. The wickedness and viciousness of a lie that seeks to utilise a tragedy where so many people have lost their lives, even as rescue efforts are ongoing, and in wanton disregard to the feelings and untold grief of their loved ones for political gain, reveals a dangerous desperation, as well as the heartlessness of the perpetrators of such despicable lies. Sahara Reporters were undoubtedly well rewarded for their criminal and inhumane conduct. Typical of a hatchet job and deliberately irresponsible journalism, the publication was not signed by anyone. The Vice President has referred this disgraceful publication to his lawyers for prompt legal action.

Sincere condolence to the affected people; those who came out alive but got injured, our prayers are with them as we wish them speedy recovery, and rip to the deceased. It is indeed an unfortunate event. However, the State government should take seriously any form of building building construction, and international best practice should be followed Compliance with building design should be scrutinized And certified if met the requirements 15 Likes |

Sahara Reporters should put their head in shame. That media platform has been worse since Omoyele Sowore (Owner) started dazzling into politics. I wonder what they want to gain in tarnishing the image of a respected great man like Osinbajo. No sane person should take them serious anymore. Nigeria deserve pure journalism not beer parlor jists. 31 Likes

If you are Nigerian you still have issues thinking outside the box, then it’s risky to continue living in the country. The fact that the office of the Vice President came out within 24hrs that he’s not the owner of the said property makes it look suspicious, why will the vice go through that stress, when he can easily order the Lagos state government to find and publish out the original rightful owner of the land through the ministry of land at halawusa 20 Likes 3 Shares |

Re: Ikoyi High-rise Collapse: Osinbajo Saddened, Condoles With Affected Families by ecomalchemist(m): 12:28pm On Nov 05, 2021 |
I talk am, if he successfully completed the building...he'd go to Osibanjo's church in Abuja and Pastor Matthew ashimolow in UK on Sunday with a chopper to give testimony. If you ask him how he achieved such feat, he will tell you "mY BrOtHer I sERvE a LiViNg God oh"...so na me be idol worshipper abi ? Will such a person rest in peace for causing so many families untold grief and hardship ? I no sabi that one, only time will tell. This is the resultant effect of cutting corners, bribery and corruption is worse than a cancerous tumor. Let's do things right at all times. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Any Nigerian that believes these thieves in high places is a condemned fool! They are natural born liars....Dear VP shut up and shove your condolence... You are in charge of a country that kills its citizens daily vis a vis your incompetence.... so you have blood on your hands prior to this event and you are culpable. Once again, dear VP...Shut up and shove your condolence where the sun don't shine. 4 Likes 1 Share |

perambulator: But what will you gain on insisting that the VP has anything to do with the building? Do you have any concrete proof of this or it's just bad belle? As a public office holder, he is required to declare his assets both local and foreign publicly and do so regularly. If he is indeed the ownerof the said property, documents would have surfaced online to prove so but till now nothing. Just this evil minded rumour mongers like you that are bent on tarnishing another man's image. I hope you don't mind the same fate befalling you in the nearest future when your name will be dragged for something you know nothing of. If you don't have concrete proof desist from this your evil agenda or expect the same fate to befall you 10 Likes |

Sahara Reporters would do itself a favour by accepting that the said report is false and go the extra mile to tender an unreserved apology to the VP. However, if it stands by its report, then they should prove beyond all reasonable doubt by providing more exposé on the involvement of the VP in anyway.

AdedoyinO: I suggest you summon up all the education that was given to you and tell me where I said or implied the building has anything to do with osinbajo? You might want to use any braincells that are left (if any) to check my post history where you will see I said (even before any official denial by osinbajo or Elizade) I dont beleive the story ......for the exact reasons you mentioned but more importantly, his lifestyle and pedigree does not suggest he would do such a thing particularly so soon after assuming office. Even when the Osinbajo moles on nairaland were silent in the face of the attacks he was receiving yesterday. My issue is not Osinbajo, i have no issue with him, he is a good man. My issue is people coming on nairaland specifically with a clandestine mission, pretending they are members of the public when they work for the VP. 2 Likes |
