UPDATE: How OJB Jezreel’s Brothers Are in War With Wife Over His Property
Nigerian singer and music producer OJB Jezreel passed away on June 14, 2016, following a prolonged battle with kidney ailment just a few days before his 50th birthday.
According to multiple reports, the Delta-born producer’s N50m worth property located on Gbaja street, Surulere, Lagos has been causing a lot of ripples amongst family members recently.
However, contrary to a report by New Telegraph, that the aged father of the deceased, Pa Anthony Okungbowa has asked his son’s widow and first wife, Mabel Babatunde Okungbowa, to vacate the house owned by the late singer, with her kids, LIB investigations reveal that the man, who is over 90 years old and currently resides in his hometown Agbor, Delta State has nothing to do with it.
”It is OJB’s elder brothers that are behind this whole issue. Especially his immediate elder brother, Tony Okungbowa,” a highly place source revealed.
