0:03
most prominent youths leaders in Nigeria
0:05
believed to have thousands of youths
0:07
very loyal to him during the week came
0:10
out with a video press release to
0:12
confirm before the general public that
0:14
he was invited by the Economic and
0:16
Financial Crimes Commission EFCC over
0:19
petitions and allegations of Naira abuse
0:22
stating that he honored the invitation
0:24
because nobody is above the law but he
0:28
decided to issue the video press release
0:30
because of Albert Avesi a loyalist of
0:32
the immediate past Edo state governor
0:35
Godwin Obiski whom he accused of always
0:38
insulting him and trying to spoil his
0:40
name on social media thus he issued a
0:44
threat message to pluck off his teeth
0:45
and break his bones with his own bare
0:48
hands anytime Albert Abezy who is
0:50
currently living in London comes to
0:53
Nigeria adding that since his parents
0:56
cannot call him to order and if Albert
0:58
Abey ever insults him on social media
1:01
platforms again his parents' home will
1:03
be visited and the parents will start
1:05
feeling the heat although in less than
1:08
24 hours after issuing the statement
1:10
Tony Kbaka issued another video press
1:13
release at night apologizing to the
1:15
parents of Albert Abezy and withdrew his
1:18
apparent threat messages earlier issued
1:20
against them but hours after issuing the
1:23
apology message on Tuesday on Wednesday
1:26
Albert Azy cried out on social media
1:29
raised an alarm that his own house
1:30
situated at a Magba area in Benin City
1:33
has been attacked and properties
1:35
destroyed by people he suspected to be
1:37
Tony Kabaka and his boys emphasizing
1:40
that nobody is above the law in the
1:42
first video he issued Tony Kabaka said
1:45
he went to EFCC officers invited and his
1:48
lawyer took him on bail saying he
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
2:04
being the alleged instigator that went
2:06
about and started reposting the videos
2:08
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 Abiski 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
3:42
ventures a revenue collecting agency who
3:45
were in charge of revenue collections
3:47

3:52
Albert Avesy of being the one that went
3:54
publicly to tell the world that he
3:56
celebrated having 2 billion naira as his
3:59
own savings tony Kabaka added that since
4:03
Albert Azy 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
4:31
youth's leader specifically with the
4:33
word Walker saying this is the first
4:36
time he's insulting Tony Kabaka because
4:38
the Edeto state government revenue

4:46
further to make more allegations against

4:56
Kabaka and one of his associates in the

employment of Edo state government in
5:00
charge of revenue matters are using
5:02
their personal bank accounts to collect
5:04
revenue from taxpayers in the state
5:07
adding that the alleged diversion of
5:09
government revenues into the personal
5:11

5:16
sprays and allegedly abuses at
5:18
ceremonies albert Abezy went further to
5:20
show an apparent video evidence of a
