Media personality and car dealer Ola of Lagos has dismissed claims linking him to the ownership of the Skywise Group property recently torn down by the Lagos State Government.
In a video statement shared online, Ola explained that he only leased a section of the property to run his car dealership and never claimed to own the site, contrary to widespread rumors circulating on social media.
He noted that the demolition was carried out by the state government due to structural and safety concerns, not as a targeted action against him or his business.
“I want to clarify the situation regarding the demolition of my car lot. I only rented a part of the Skywise Group property to operate my business. The government acted because of safety violations, not because of any personal issue with me,” Ola said.
The clarification comes after social commentators, including activist Deji Adeyanju, criticized him for allegedly presenting himself as the property owner.
The matter quickly drew attention on social media, prompting Ola to call on Nigerians to confirm facts before sharing unverified information.
He emphasized that the demolition was purely a regulatory action and reaffirmed his commitment to running his business in compliance with legal and safety standards.
