The widows and children of Ismail want the property sold so they can share the proceeds as they complain of incessant harassment and brutality meted out to them by David’s sons. The matter has sparked a furore as aged David insists he would never sell his own floor of the storey building. “The house is located at 14 Abiodun Shobajo Street, Agidingbi, Ikeja, very close to the New African Shrine in Alausa.

“If I die and my husband’s brother too is no more, his sons could claim ownership of the building since they have been carrying themselves as if their father is the sole owner.Kudirat’s position was echoed by Risikat Adebayo, the younger wife of Ismail Adebayo, who explained that she was harassed when she visited the residence lately.

“There was a day I visited them at Itoki and my younger brother’s older wife assaulted me while I was going back to Agidingbi.“We have shared the building into two parts and they have been collecting money from renting out the apartment.“When I told Kudirat about it, she threatened to throw curses at me.
