LBIC MD, Tobi Lawal Called Out Over Allegation Of Bribery, Forceful Acquisition Of Property ( photos)

The managing director of Lagos building investment company, Mr Tobi Lawal has been called out over allegations bothering on bribery, forceful acquisition of property, name dropping amongst other things.
In a message addressed to him which is made available to us, Bricktop Development and Advisory accused Mr Tobi Lawal of requesting bribes for an apartment which his company constructed under a JV with LBIC.
According to him, among the 16 buildings at Abike Court located at No 1, Rev. Ogunbiyi GRA, Ikeja Lagos, 11 apartments belong to him while the state agency owns five. Interestingly, Mr Tobi Lawal who is allegedly using one Lanre Obisesan as proxy demanded for one of  Bricktop’s apartments  as a bribe’. This was met with stiff opposition and sadly, Mr Tobi was alleged to have used his position to forcefully break into the apartment and damage it with an attempt to acquire it.
Mr Tobi and his proxy, Lanre Obisesan are alleged of name-dropping bragging with the governor’s name to forcefully take people’s property, claiming it belongs to them while they didn’t pay a dime.
“ Infact, he is extremely arrogant and proud and i am sure even the governor didn’t know his worth. It’s because of such characters like this that the performing governor of Lagos state almost lost his second term bid during the election. He is fond of using head of parastatal to perpetrate his acts and I advised them to get directives from the governor before listening to him. I also enjoined the IG and the CP to investigate the police he took along for his operations like this”.
Here is a copy of the message Bricktop Development And Advisory sent  To Him:
Good evening Mr Tobi Lawal.
I trust you have had a splendid day so far.
I note your incessant request for a bribe of an apartment in Abike Court, which my company constructed under a JV with LBIC. Please note that aside from my aversion to bribing public officers for the discharge of their duties, the rise in the costs of building materials occasioned astronomical change in the budget for the construction of Abike Court. Consequently, it is  practically and ethically impossible for me to pay you the requested bribe of one apartment in Abike Court(No,1 Rev Ogunbiyi Gra Ikeja Lagos)
I hope you understand my position and will not resort to  malicious campaigns against the project and my person in government circles. I do reserve all my rights in this regard.
Thank you for your understanding.

It is essential to illustrate, without resorting to sensationalism or witch-hunts, the intimate and cordial relationship between celebrated World Televangelist Prophet Israel Oladele Ogundipe, fondly referred to as Genesis, and a proactive, renewed Abuja-based lawyer and human rights activist, Oluwapelumi Jacob Olajengbesi

 

 

Evidently, this positions everyone to believe any assertion Prophet Oladele makes about Olajengbesi. As the well-known Lagos prophet briefed the media in Lagos, he spoke about what attracted him to the Abuja-based lawyer and human rights activist.

 

 

He further expressed that his passion for championing the cause of the less privileged and the oppressed is what truly captivates and inspires his unwavering love.

 

According to Prophet Israel Oladele Ogundipe, Barrister Pelumi Olajengbesi earns his enduring respect and admiration for prioritizing the plight of the oppressed, despite being born into affluent circumstances with humble beginnings.

 

 

Olajengbesi reportedly embarked on studying law at a prestigious university, driven by his desire to challenge oppressors and individuals who wield significant power in the country, believing themselves to be above challenge.

 

 

In addition, Prophet Genesis extols the virtues of the esteemed Barrister Olajengbesi, who views himself as an advocate for the voiceless populace and a crusader for the authentic liberation of the people.

 

In addition to his praise, Prophet Genesis values his love for God and humanity, and also extended congratulations to Barrister Pelumi Olajengbesi, co-founder of Law Corridor, a law firm based in Abuja, on the launch of his new multi-millionaira chambers

He concluded by saying a heartfelt prayer that Barrister Pelumi will continue to grow and have a greater impact in Jesus’ name.
