The AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq-led Kwara government today demolished Bukola Saraki’s family property “Ile Arugbo” (old people’s home) built on land which ownership was recently revoked by the state.


The Kwara state government has earlier stated that it will build a secretariat on the site after it recovered it.
