FILE: Ogun State Governor, Dapo Abiodun
The children of the late Alhaji Ganiyu Busari and the management of Constancy Farms in Fere Village, Jibowu, Obafemi/Owode Local Government Area of Ogun State, have appealed to Governor Dapo Abiodun and President Bola Tinubu to intervene in an alleged move by the state government to reallocate their 11-acre poultry farm to a Chinese-owned company.
The family claimed that the proposed takeover had subjected them and their workers to constant threats and intimidation, while alleged attempts to demolish parts of the farm had resulted in damage to their property and losses to their poultry business.
However, the Special Adviser to the Governor on Information and Strategy, Kayode Akinmade, told our correspondent that the reallocation of the land housing the poultry farm had the backing of the government and was in accordance with the law.
Akinmade said the government revoked the family’s earlier acquisition of the land because they failed to pay the assessment fee within the stipulated time.
