The brother had reportedly been involved in the property transaction from the beginning, making the man trust him with the documents.

Brother claimed government planned to demolish property

The man said that around 2025, his elder brother called to inform him that an ongoing road construction project would lead to the demolition of the shopping complex.

He reportedly believed the explanation and felt helpless because the property was supposedly affected by a government road project.

However, when he returned to Nigeria this year, he drove past the property and noticed that there was no road construction.

Instead, he reportedly found a large eatery operating on the land.
