Efunroye Tinubu Estate: Family Insists Adamakin No Longer Has Power Of Attorney
The family and Board of Trustees (BoT) of the estate of the late Madam Efunroye Tinubu has insisted that the revocation of the appointment of their former attorney, Adamakin Investment and Works Limited, and its director, Akinfolabi Akindele, is irreversible.
Consequently, the trustees said the family has endorsed the appointment of Lagoon Park Global Resources Limited as the family’s current and authentic attorney.
The Board of Trustees made up of its Chairman, Alhaji Adio Kassim Lumosa, Vice Chairman, Chief G. O. Fasetire; the Secretary, Mr. Temilola Adesanya, and the Treasurer, Chief Shafiu Kassim Lumosa, made the clarification at a press briefing held at Abeokuta, Ogun State.
The trustees alleged that the former attorney acted improperly, and was no longer working in the best interest of the family.
They disclosed that since 1955, the courts have been appointing members of trustees for the estate of late Madam Efunroye Tinubu, adding that the current trustees were appointed in 2002 by the high court of Lagos State Ikeja Judicial Division.
The trustees added that the former attorney, Adamakin Investment and Works Limited, whose Director is Akinfolabi Akindele was appointed in August 2012 but his appointment was revoked in April 2017 over alleged fraud and refusal to render an account of stewardship to the family.
