The fraudulent transactions of the unauthorized persons and their representatives are presently under scrutiny by EFCC. This is therefore to notify members of the public and any interested party to be wary of any transaction involving any portion or part of the Land as such transactions will be visited with the wrath of the law, “the eye witness quoted EFCC.

Speaking to the Press, the spokesman for Mr. Tony Orilade said the EFCC is only investigating the land.

He said,” We are investigating the matter you are talking about and at the appropriate time, we shall make our findings known to you and other members of the public.
