They have also threaten to close the Radio Nigeria North Central Zonal office in Lafia if the former APC National Chairman continue to hold on to the property in the state capital.

Speaking to Journalists in Lafia, Saturday, first son of the former NPN Chairman, Alhaji Mohammed Yahaya Sabo alleged that the first civilian governor of the state, Abdullahi Adamu illegally rented the property belonging to their late father for PDP during his tenure as the governor of the state.

According to Mohammed Sabo, Abdullahi Adamu had pleaded with their late father to assist PDP with the property to use as temporary office which was gladly obliged because according to him, Adamu was their father’s boy.

He alleged that the former APC National Chairman sold their father’s house to the state government when he was the governor adding that all efforts to recover their late father’s house has not yielded positive results since the demise of their late father.

“We have been pleading with Abdullahi Adamu to hand over our father’s property for several years now with out serious commitment from the former governor of the state. We have taking Adamu to court, but the late Emir of Lafia, Mustapha Agwai prevail on us to withdraw the matter from the court for settlement since Adamu has been turning us up and down”, Mohammed said.

According to the head of the late chairman of the defuct NPN, Abdullahi Adamu illegally took over the ownership of the building over 25 years now without doing anything for the family.

“We will continue to fight to reclaim our late father’s property. Abdullahi Adamu cannot deprive us of our legitimate right. We will have no choice than to seal up the property being occupied by the radio Nigeria”. Mohammed declared.

Mohammed Yahaya Sabo alleged that the family is now sharply divided as a result of Adamu’s action adding that others have been on him with the allegation that he connived with Adamu to sale the family property.

He appealed to governor Abdullahi Sule and other well meaning citizens of the state to press on Adamu to wear human face and release their father’s property to the family in the interest of peace and justice.
