Professor Yemi Osinbajo

Pastor Yemi Osinbajo of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, RCCG has debunked claims that an official residence of the worth of N7 billion is being erected for his person.

In an official letter, he reiterated that the seeming ostentatious and white elephant project was initiated under the administration of former President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan in 2010 and he as since rejected the proposal.

The house was rumoured to have a gateman house costing a whooping sum of N250 million as reportedly contained in the 2017 national budget presented before the national assembly.

Osinbajo concluded that the Aguda House where he is currently residing is perfect for his capacity as Vice President of Nigeria.
