Razaq Okoya's Family Responds to Son's Allegations

The family of billionaire industrialist Razaq Okoya has issued a statement in response to allegations made by his son, Fatai Okoya, concerning his relationship with Shade Okoya. Fatai claimed that Shade prevented him from seeing his father during Razaq Okoya's 86th birthday celebration.

However, Nathaniel Omeninwan, senior public relations manager of Eleganza Industries Ltd, stated that both Shade and Fatai were present at the outreach event and exchanged pleasantries. The family contended that Shade did not obstruct Fatai from seeing his father and that another family member advised him against discussing his grievances at the event, which Fatai accepted before leaving.

The family also clarified that Fatai is not Razaq Okoya's first-born child but his third child, and noted that their disagreements predated Razaq's marriage to Shade. Furthermore, the family highlighted that Fatai had received financial support from his father, including four flats and assistance with medical bills.

They expressed discontent over the public airing of family matters and urged respect for their privacy.
