“The state judiciary had also, on 17th February, 2021, written to inform the government that the house was being used as a hideout by criminal elements. These criminal elements have been terrorising residents of the neighbouring houses.
“A Notice of Revocation was served on Hon. Yakubu Abdullahi on 21st and 23rd September, 2021 in respect of the Certificate of Occupancy fraudulently granting him ownership of the property by the then commissioner of Works, Land and Housing, Abubakar Tatari Ali,” Gidado added. He said that a team of state government officials led by the Secretary to the State Government went to the site on 29th September, 2021 to confirm the development and, “upon reaching the site, the team confirmed the construction work and was confronted by one Ibrahim Ago who threatened fire and brimstone, insulted and threatened the officials,” he said.
Reacting on the claim by the lawmaker that four of the security men guarding the house were shot and taken to the hospital where the bullets were removed, Gidado said, “On reaching the site, the team was confronted by thugs hired by Hon. Yakubu Abdullahi and led by the said Ibrahim Ago. The thugs fired at the team who had to withdraw, to avoid casualty.
