The Ogun State Government has dismissed claims that it arbitrarily revoked the allocation of a parcel of land in Obafemi/Owode Local Government Area, saying the provisional offer was cancelled because the applicant failed to pay the assessed cost of the land within the stipulated 60-day period.
It would be recalled that on Thursday, the children of late Ganiyu Busari and the management of Constancy Farms, located in Fere Village, Jibowu, Obafemi/Owode Local Government Area, 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.
Speaking with journalists on Thursday, one of the late Busari’s children, Azeez Busari, alleged that officials of the Ogun State Government and representatives of the Chinese company had been pressuring the family since 2025 to vacate the property, despite what he described as valid documents supporting their ownership and acquisition of the land.
