Former Senate President, Bukola
Saraki has reacted to Thursday’s demolition of his father’s Ilorin, Kwara State
house.
The Kwara State Government had on
Thursday morning demolished the late Olusola Saraki’s house, popularly called
Ile Arugbo (House for old persons), after the state government revoked the
title of the landed property.
Reacting to the development,
Saraki assured that justice would prevail in no distance time.
“Following the development this
morning in Ile Arugbo, I want to commend the women and men, old and young, who
displayed their affection, love and staunch support for my late father and the
family. I appreciate the genuine support of the women and youths who stood
firmly in the face of aggression
and naked show of force.
“Your action throughout the night
gave full expression to my belief that what Ile Arugbo represents to all of us
is etched in our hearts. It goes beyond the physical structure. I am happy that
you were not intimidated as you stood your ground.
“This day will go down as the day
you reciprocated the love and affection my father and family have for you. You
have displayed a gesture of goodwill and passionate love. We assure you that
justice shall prevail in a not too distant future,” he said on his Facebook
wall.
