‘It is OJB’s elder brothers that are behind this whole issue. Especially his immediate elder brother, Tony Okungbowa’ a source reported.

A caveat that reads: “This House is Not for Sale” has been written on the gate of the house, a four-bedroom bungalow, a duplex and a shop.

A residence on the street who asked not to be named said:

‘I know the day they came to write this thing, na OJB brother send boys to come write and they almooust fought with his wife, mabe because she didn’t want them to write it’.

 

Another source confirmed that ‘OJB foresaw this kind of troubles after his death and that was why he had concluded to sell the property himself before he died but the Monday morning that the buyer was supposed to come and pay Fifty Million Naira for the house was the day he died’.

 

An exclusive report by Thenetng dated June 14, 2016 partly reads, ‘OJB had finalised plans to sell his Surulere residence for N50m today to a commercial bank (name withheld)..
