Tension as Ogun govt allegedly orders demolition of plaza belonging to Gbenga Daniel’s wife
The Governor Dapo Abiodun-led Ogun government reportedly authorised the demolition of DATKEM Plaza, a property owned by Olufunke Daniel, the wife of former governor, Senator Gbenga Daniel.
According to a report by PM News, the demolition, which occurred at 3:00 a.m. on Sunday, took place at the five-storey building situated on Folagbade Street, Ijebu-Ode.
Confirming the demolition, Olusegun Lawal, the Project Manager and Developer of the building, said the plaza had been under construction since 2009 and had received full approval from the state government.

According to him, the building was scheduled for commissioning by the end of September before its abrupt demolition, and there were no structural or quality issues with the structure.
Furthermore, Mr. Lawal revealed that the third floor of the now-demolished building was intended to house the Ogun East Senatorial Office.
“When they partially sealed us, they asked us to pay an unsealing fee of half a million (N500,000), which I paid. They received it, and the next thing they did was give us a letter in which they said that within 24 hours, the amendment submitted doesn’t confirm what we’re building. Can we perform magic in this life?”, said Lawal.
Speculation surrounding a potential political rift between Governor Dapo Abiodun and former governor Gbenga Daniel has arisen following the demolition of DATKEM Plaza, as depicted in a video shared on GoldMyneTV’s Instagram account.
While neither party has officially acknowledged the existence of any ongoing feud, concerns have surfaced regarding the motivations behind the abrupt demolition.
Attempts to seek comments from their respective spokespersons on the matter went unanswered as of Sunday morning.
