first video he issued tony Kabaka said
1:45
he went to EFCC officers invited and his

1:51
wonders why Albert Aesy is going about
1:53
on social media platforms giving all
1:55
manners of narratives as if he has done
1:58
something wrong to honor EFCC invitation
2:01
tony Kabaka also accused Albert Aesy of

of him spraying money at three different
2:10
ceremonies which he said made EFCC to
2:13
invite him according to Tony Kabaka the
2:16
videos of the alleged abuse of Naira
2:19
notes were events that were held long
2:20
ago a period he said he never knew the
2:23
government was really serious about the
2:25
CBN act of Naira abuse stressing that
2:29
the videos and the events were recorded
2:31
and held long ago before his close
2:33
associate and co-official colleague in
2:35
the Edo state government Kelly aka Ebo
2:39
Stone allegedly violated the Naira abuse
2:41
laws which he was also invited by the
2:45
EFCC while apologizing to Albert Aesy
2:48
parents over his comments and apparent
2:50
threat tony Kabaka listed many wrongs
2:53
the London-based Albert Abezy has
2:55
allegedly committed against him which
2:57
include allegedly instigating the then
3:00
governor Godwin Obiski to demolish his
3:02
hotel the Tatifa hotel and suites that
3:05
was demolished in 2020 by the former
3:07
governor on the ground that the hotel
3:09
was built on government primary school
3:11
land even when and high court had issued
3:13
a restraining order in 2019 ordering the
3:16
then governor ofi to stop the demolition
3:19
plan the high court later ruled against
3:22
the Edeto state government and ordered
3:24
the government to rebuild the hotel and
3:26
hands it over to the owner Tony Kabaka
3:29
although the Edeto state government
3:31
appealed against the high court ruling
3:33
but few months ago the appeal court also
3:35
ruled and affirmed the decision of the
3:37
lower high court continuing Tony Kabaka
3:41
who was the chairman of Akub bay

own savings tony Kabaka added that since
4:03
Albert Aese allegedly told the whole
4:05
world that he celebrated having 2
4:07
billion naira of his own he knows what
4:09
he has been facing and the issues the
4:11
alleged statement has caused him
4:14
reacting Albert Aesy said he has done
4:16
nothing wrong by alerting the public
4:18
that Tony Kbaka has been arrested and
4:20
that shouldn't warrant him to start
4:22
threatening him and his parents albert
4:25
Aesy who appeared furious over the
4:27
apparent message issued against his
4:29
parents by Tony Kbaka insulted the

youth's leader specifically with the
4:33
word Walker saying this is the first
4:36
time he's insulting Tony Kabaka because

their personal bank accounts to collect
5:04
revenue from taxpayers in the state
