Media personality and author, Toke Makinwa has reacted viral online reports that her home has been taken over by the Asset Management Corporation of Nigeria (AMCON).
Earlier today July 27, Nigerian Twitter went wild after it was reported that her ”Banana Island property” was confiscated by AMCON.
However, a statement released this evening by her publicist, Andrea Manuela Giaccaglia, states that Toke is the sole owner of her Ikoyi property and that it has not been confiscated by AMCON.
The statement didn’t mention any property in Banana Island, but it added that legal action will be taken against the originators of the report that her house has been taken over by AMCON.
The statement reads,
On behalf of Ms. Toke Makinwa, we would like to address the rumour circulating the internet that Ms. Toke Makinwa’s alleged house in Banana Island was taken over by the Asset Management Corporation of Nigeria (AMCON).
