Contestant for Ooni Of Ife Stool In Alleged N400m Fraud And Forgery
By Unknown - Friday, October 02, 2015
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has begun investigation into allegations of forgery, fraudulent conversion and obtaining the sum of N400m by false pretence against Mr. Adeyeye Ogunwusi and his firm, Metropole Interproject Limited
Ogunwusi is one of the foremost contestants for the vacant stool of the Ooni of Ile-Ife, Osun State.
In a petition written by the chambers of Rotimi Jacobs and Co. dated September 7, 2015, Messrs Sijuwade Holdings Limited stated that in 1993, it purchased a parcel of land measuring 30,000 square metres from the Ojomu Chieftaincy Family at the Lekki peninsula, Lagos, and duly obtained the Governor’s Consent to the transaction.
Thereafter, SHL claimed it entered into an agreement with Metropole Interproject Limited for the latter to sand-fill the entire parcel of land, and that upon completion of the sand filling, Metropole would be given 7,500 square metres from the land “to serve as the company’s fees.” more stories after the cut..............
The petition stated that after the completion of the sand-filling, Metropole offered to develop the remaining portion of land for SHL, adding that the offer was accepted on the condition that the development would be in phases.
The responsibilities of Metropole as stated in the Development Mandate Agreement included the funding of the development and procurement of all necessary permits from the federal and Lagos State governments; as well as the funding/construction of 24 duplex units on the 7,500 square metres and this was to form the basis of Metropole’s equity in the project entitling the developer to 16 units out of the 24.
The petition stated, “Our client (Sijuwade Holdings) gave Mr. Ogunwusi the title document (which was in our client’s name), including the tax clearance of two directors to process the necessary permits required for the construction. After the completion of phase 1, our client requested copies of the approvals and consent, but Mr. Ogunwusi refused to provide them.
“Our client engaged the services of a town planner (TG Marchnata) to conduct a search at the offices of the Lagos State Physical Planning and Development Authority. The town planner got copies of all the documents submitted by Mr. Ogunwusi/Metropole for the purposes of procuring the building permits for the construction.
“To our client’s surprise, the search revealed that Mr. Ogunwusi/Metropole had forged the title documents by superimposing the name of Metropole Interproject Limited as a co-owner of the parcel of land. The signature of Professor Olawoyin, SAN, who prepared the title document was also forged by Mr. Ogunwusi/Metropole.
“Mr. Ogunwusi also submitted a forged Certificate of Incorporation with the name: Metropole Interproject & Sijuwade Holdings Limited. He also forged some documents belonging to the Lagos State Government and uttered same to the Lagos State Physical Planning and Development Authority.”
The petition further stated, “Meanwhile, before our client got to know about the fraudulent activities of Mr. Ogunwusi/Metropole, our client had, in line with the agreement it had with Mr. Ogunwusi/Metropole, issued title in favour of Metropole and its nominees for the units due to the company.
“Apart from the forgery earlier complained about, Mr. Ogunwusi/Metropole has also sold the eight duplex units that ought to have accrued to our client and he converted the proceeds, running into N400m, to his personal use.”
The petitioner, therefore, asked the EFCC to investigate the circumstances under which the title documents were allegedly forged.
In a letter with reference CR:3000/LS/EGC-1/VOL. 6/409 and dated September 17, 2015, the EFCC asked the legal firm of Olawoyin & Olawoyin to confirm if the agreement allegedly submitted by Metropole for the building permits was prepared by the firm.
The EFCC’s letter was signed by one Abubakar R. Madaki on behalf of the Head of Operations, and stated that the request was made pursuant to Section 38 (1) (2) of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (Establishment) Act, 2004; and Section 21 of the Money Laundering (Prohibition) Act, 2012.
While responding to the EFCC request, Olawoyin and Olawoyin stated in a letter dated September 23, 2015, “We wish to state that the agreement (a copy of which was attached to your letter under reference) was NOT prepared by our firm. We have taken the liberty to attach to this letter a copy of the actual document that was prepared by our firm and draw your attention to the following differing aspects of the agreement:
(a) The front page of the agreement attached to your letter contains Metropole Interproject Limited as a party to the agreement of sale, while in the actual document prepared by our firm, Metropole Interproject Limited is not a party.
(b) The signature on the front page of the actual document prepared by our firm is that of the undersigned, Prof. Gabriel Olawoyin, SAN, while the signature attached to the front page of the document attached to your letter is NOT that of Prof. Gabriel Olawoyin.
(c) Page 1 of the agreement prepared by our firm does NOT make any reference to Metropole Interproject Limited, while the document attached to your letter makes reference to Metropole Interproject Limited.”
When contacted to authenticate the content of the petition, Mr. Rotimi Jacobs of Rotimi Jacobs and Co. confirmed that his firm sent the petition to the EFCC on behalf of Sijuwade Holdings, but refused to comment further.
Similarly, Olawoyin confirmed his firm’s response to the request by the EFCC but declined further comments.
Ogunwusi, on his part, denied the allegations levied against him and Metropole Interproject Limited, saying he was being maliciously targeted for negative press because of his interest in the vacant stool of the Ooni.
He said, “Why are they trying to write damaging reports about me now and why not two, three years ago? The heart of man is full of wickedness. What they are saying is a lie; we have resolved it. They are using it to smear my name.

By Unknown - Friday, October 02, 2015
Thirteen people, including six American service members, were killed early Friday when a U.S. C-130 transport plane crashed while taking off from an airport in Afghanistan, a U.S. military official said.
The crash happened shortly after midnight local time (3:19 p.m. ET) at Jalalabad airport, coalition spokesperson U.S. Army Col. Brian Tribus said.
Six of the dead were U.S. service members that were the crew of the aircraft, five were civilian contractors who were passengers, and two were local Afghan civilians who were killed on the ground, the military official said.
The civilian contractors were working with "Resolute Support," the NATO-led mission to train and advise Afghan security forces. It follows the military mission in Afghanistan after combat operations ended at the end of 2014.
A cause for the crash has not been determined. The military official said there were no reports of hostile activity in the area at the time of the crash.
The C-130 is a four-engine turboprop aircraft used to transport personnel and oversized cargo.

CONGRATULATIONS, Nigerians!
Yesterday, October 1, 2015 we celebrated our nation’s independence, and shared our patriotism which brings us great pride and honour with good cheer. This National Day brings to mind, the various sacrifices of all Nigerians (especially the Nigerian women) in the face of the country’s democracy, economy, security, education, entertainment and most importantly – the smallest unit of societal organisation – the family.
In the history of Nigeria we celebrate the various accounts of women such as Ebele Ajanu of the Igala tribe, Nana Asmau of Zauzzau, Emotan of Benin and Moremi of Ife, of pre-coIonial Nigeria; Chief (Mrs.) Olufunmilayo Ransome-Kuti, Chief (Mrs.) Margaret Ekpo, and Janet Mokelu of colonial Nigeria. Specifically, we celebrate in recent years, the sacrifices and works of –
(1) Mama Hannah Idowu Dideolu (family and politics) - “jewel of inestimable value”. The quintessential matriarch of the Nigerian family, a successful businesswoman and an astute politician.
(2) Dr. Stella Ameyo Adadevoh (medical services/patriotism) – who curbed a possible wider spread of the Ebola virus in Nigeria and is posthumously praised alongside heroes such as her great-grandfather, Sir Herbert Macaulay; and her grand uncle – former President Nnamdi Azikiwe.
(3) Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala (economy) – globally renowned economist and former co-ordinating minister of the economy/minister of finance and now, Senior Advisor at Lazard. Her notable contributions include – the paris club partial debt write off (October, 2005), introduction of the sovereign wealth fund, and the Treasury Single Account. Her activities saved the nation N208.7billion from about 62,893 ghost workers scam in the federal civil service.
(4) Mo’ Abudu/Bimbo Oloyede (media/entrepreneur) – role models for the Nigerian woman. Mo’ Abudu is described by Forbes as “Africa’s Most Successful Woman”. She is the first woman in Africa to own a pan-African TV channel – Ebony Life Television. Bimbo Oloyede, Nigeria’s Ace-broadcaster.
(5) Mrs. Joke Silva-Jacobs/Onyeka Onwenu/Lanre Da-Silva (entertainment) – role models in the movie, music and fashion industries. We appreciate the role of the entertainment industry in educating, sensitizing and developing the nation.
These names are but a few, of the over 86 million Nigerian women who contribute in auspicious ways to the growth and development of this nation. Everyone is celebrated!
Finally, in the words of former President Goodluck Jonathan on the occasion of the 53rd anniversary of our country’s independence, “Whether we are Muslims or Christians; rich or poor; from the north or the south; east or west; regardless of our political affiliations, this is a time to pull together”. Let us keep moving Nigeria forward. It is such a special day/month to pray that the culture, integrity and unity of our dear country, will live longer.
Congratulatory Cheers from:
The Lagos State Woman Leader,
Peoples’ Democratic Party
Lagos state
Lagos State Government has shut Hongxing Steel Company Limited, a Chinese company based in Amuwo-Odofin Local Government for safety violations.
The state government issued the stop-work order following the death of a casual worker, Mr. Emeka Umoh. He sustained severe burns after liquefied iron spilled on him on September 23, 2015.
Vanguard learnt that he died at the Lagos University Teaching Hospital, LUTH, where he was rushed to for treatment by the management.
Director General of the Lagos State Safety Commission, LSSC, Mr. Fouad Oki, in a statement after visiting the company, said that the company failed to adhere to the state safety standards.
Oki lamented the working condition in the company, saying it was deplorable.
He noted that a safety audit of the company that was earlier conducted by the LSSC team showed that very little safety measure was put in place by the management.
Oki said: “We have no option than to give the closure directive because the working condition in the company is harsh and totally unacceptable. It was unacceptable to Lagos as a work-place.”
Mr. Uche Eke, the Public Relations Manager of the company, while reacting to the closure, said it would serve as a notice to the management to improve on its work-place safety measures, adding, “when it is improved, it will help to avoid future hazards.’’
They should not bother re-opening PLEASE!
