US-based filmmaker Faith Ojo recently resumed her attack on Adegboyega Lateef Lawal, husband of actress Lizzy Anjorin, over an alleged land grabbing.
Faith Ojo accused Mr. Lawal of working with Lizzy Anjorin to steal her land in Lagos in an Instagram post.
The director penned:
“Alhaji Lathief Lawal (Lizzy Anjorin husband) you claimed you bought my land in 2011 when you were based in abroad and that was why you didn’t know I was already on the land upto 2023 (lies).
“Oga Lathief, now that you are back to Nigeria and have permanent residence in Idumota please produce the land papers you claimed the seller issued to you when you bough the said land.
“The Court has ordered that you produce the papers and you have been given 42 days to do so. The 42 days is almost elapsing and you are yet to tender the land papers in Court.”
In another post, Faith Ojo continued:
“What other lies are you going to tell the Court on the next adjourned date? The world is watching.
“He who fetches ant-infested wood has invited lizards to his home. and the man that swallows a pestle must sleep standing up. By colluding with your fraudulent wife to grab my land in Lagos, you have swallowed a pestle..”
Recall that the Magistrate Court in Oyingbo Ebute-Metta, Lagos, ruled decisively on the issue involving Lizzy’s husband, Alhaji Sulaimon of Okun-Ajah, and others.
Alhaji Sulaimon is charged with intentionally causing damage to properties worth 15 million naira that belong to Faith Ojo and were supposedly meant for an orphanage and crippled children.
The defendant and his accomplices were able to avoid capture while additional police investigations were still going on, in spite of the efforts made by the Zone 2 Police to deal with the purported criminal actions.
Lawal purportedly escaped arrest in Ikoyi on February 5, 2024, while his associate was apprehended and sent to prison.
Speaking on the matter in an Instagram post on February 12, Faith Ojo identified herself as the owner of the land, adding that the ongoing case will serve as a “deterrent index to all others who seek to reap where they did not sow.”
