According to The Cable, the issue came up under matters of urgent public importance by Omotayo Awodiji, assembly member representing lrepodun constituency.

Awodiji explained that the lodge was transferred to Saraki under the state’s pension law for governors and deputy governors.

But the ownership of the lodge was not transferable as it was meant for an incumbent governor of the state.

Danladi Yakubu-Salihu, speaker of the house, said the issue will be investigated to end a repeat of such.
