Those are the first assignments of Tinubu. Converting Federal property to personal ownership. The thing dey sweet am die...even though he has accumulated loot to actually buy any property...no way na to convert public property dey sweet am pass

So, the only exposure you have is on Celestial Church matters? You are this naive? The Privatization processes where the Federal Secretariat was sold to PDP agent under dubious deals and the struggling to have the place remains as office complexes are not within your reach, then you are not competent enough to complain on deep political matters.

Otipoju, so, you don't know Obasanjo hated Tinubu with passion because of that Federal Secretariat sales deal. They want to convert it to residences but Tinubu opposed it. It was a legal tussle between the buyer (the company the PDP controller used as front) and Lagos State government that created confusion for them.

Honestly, I used to weep anyway I pass through there...

My grand mother retired from that same federal secretariat...

Before we go to school then, she has people/maid who used to help her sell food outside the building, where the mechanic used as a dump site to repair car now.

Along with her helpers/maid, we will carry food on our head all the way from obalende Road, our family house there, and we will go to our own school then, just some kilometre (st. George's primary school at falomo)...

Honestly, that place needs to be revamp and put back to shape by the federal government,


The Federal Government doesn't need nor have a use for it anymore. In such cases, the Host state has a first refusal on its disposal. Lagos State asked to buy it but the FG won't sell and it was sold to Babalakin. Lagos State went to Court and I think they are still in Court.

The issues are the Elites (All of them) want that property, so they have been playing Games all along. I actually don't like taking sides in all these fight of theirs. I

Nothing was sold inside. It was systematically stripped. Furniture, Appliances,Gadgets etc. Everything! Then converted to private use. Perks of Office for them.

They prized ones are the Building and the Land it stood on. And the fight continues.

I don't know much about Dodan Barracks only that it was the seat of the Federal Military Government. And I know it will surely have a Muslim praying ground in it just like having a Christian chapel.

But can the land of a barrack be given to the external community with certificate of occupancy? Doesn't it sound like religious nepotism? Why don't they take the military to court to reclaim the land if it really belongs to them.

I see this likely setting a wrong precedent..

Don't mix things together. You have a partial idea but your last paragraph is very wrong. Yes, very wrong. Your first paragraph is partially correct. I have written on this many times on nairaland.

First paragraph. You cannot say the FG does not need it nor have a use for it anymore. In Lagos, FG MDAs need more office space. Even in that place, whenever I visit those FG agencies in the bungalows, I see how congested they are and most of them are scattered everywhere in Lagos. They need to be close together for coordination, but it has been sold.

Second paragraph is a major falsehood. It is not elites struggling to possess the building. It is Obasanjo bitterness against Tinubu and Lagos State government that created the problem for the PDP front.

Lagos State Secretariat Alausa is not enough to contain Lagos State Ministries and some vital agencies. Old Secretariat (GRA, Ikeja) have very little ministries. Lagos State is a tenant in many buildings in Lagos (about 70% of Lagos State Department & Agencies are on rented buildings). Lagos State is even a tenant to FG in building complex on the Island and Lagos State agencies scattered everywhere in private buildings. Lagos State appealed to Obasanjo to acquire the Federal Secretariat as Lagos State Secretariat Annex on the Island just like the one at GRA Ikeja (old Secretariat). Obasanjo refused. In the privatization, Lagos State made bid through a private company so that Obasanjo and his fronts will not know, but they know and blocked Lagos State out. They sold the Secretariat to their front. They wanted to convert official building to residential. There is a process for that.

At Alausa Secretariat, the big white complex which has been under construction for years would not have been needed for now.

I will stop here.

That federal secretariat in Ikoyi should be a federal property where FG agencies and institutions should be housed for harmony and corporate coordination.

I’m afraid, we could start seeing some key federal properties being converted to personal properties under this administration.

Do not be afraid, Tinubu can have the whole of Lagos in his pocket if he so wished. That is why he was voted abi selected 🤣🤣

Baba L'Awori, ki ti gbe? Lol

We are on the same page, just different use of words.

The FG MDAs squatting and cramming little place here and there in Lagos get directives from who? Not you and definitely not me. So, why were they not directed to move in after renovations (they could use the Rentals for Renovations)? I maintain that the Fight over that Property were majorly by the Elites for grabbing purposes only.

You are right that OBJ bitterness couple with the PDP Legendary propensities for Graft played a part in the saga over state of the Old Federal Secretariat, the underlying reasons is always the same: It should be mine since Govt doesn't seem to need it again but I am of the Opinion that it LASG ought to have been allowed the Right Of First Refusal rather than sell it to Babalakin under a Dodgy Bid.

And I am glad you mentioned some people bidding via a Private Front, does this not show that this was a war amongst the Elites to corner that place?

Nice poser you have here but one thing I can tell you is that the Muslims Community on that Island has been in existence before Dodan Barracks was ever built. That Ground is where the congregate for Decades. The Land has always been theirs.

When the Sit of Government moved to Dodan Barracks when the Khaki boys came, it was shared but I guess because of Security for the sitting Government with it's attendants restrictions, the Muslims sort alternative grounds.

The issue now is this: The Muslims still use the Ground but now, Shops/Containers and all sorts are being erected on the ground, even as a Dumpsite!

That is why the President ordered that the Containers/Shops be removed and if LASG deemed it fit, a CofO be issued. They owned the ground originally.

It has never been a fight between two dogs over a bone. It is bitterness against Tinubu and Lagos State. Lagos State government officially applied to Obasanjo to acquire that place for official purpose which everybody knows but Obasanjo rejected.

Fashola would have renovated that place for Lagos State government. That is why Lagos State government is very determined to see the case to conclusion. The JK Randle centre was released to LASG by FG and it still remains so.

The issue of Federal Secretariat is not elites or class struggling, it is not a case between FG and Lagos State government, it is not a case between Babalakin and LASG, it is an indirect case between Obasanjo and Lagos State government. That is why Obasanjo hates Tinubu with passion.
