Kiitan Bukola opens up on owning demolished property worth ‘N500m’

Bukola, an actress, has denied owning a house worth 500 million that was demolished in 2023.

Kiitan Bukola first made the public aware of the demolition in an Instagram video posted on Saturday.

Bukola, who appeared agitated and upset in the video, demonstrated how her gate was demolished with a bulldozer, leaving her house without a fence.

Although the actress did not comment on the demolition, she did state that she was mentally weary.

“Nigeria has finally happened to me. It is well, am mentally drained,” the Yoruba movie star wrote.

Kiitan also announced that fellow actress Iyabo Ojo offered her shelter following the demolition.

But in a recent interview with Debbie Shokoya, the 33-year-old denied owning the demolished building.

The Ola star said she never stated that the house belonged to her.

“First and foremost, the video I posted, did I say a word in it? I didn’t say anything, not even a single word. The only thing I wrote was “Ah Nigeria has happened to me, demolition’. I never said I bought house, 500 million or I bought house 700 million, I didn’t say a word,” she said.

When asked if the house belonged to her, Kiitan responded saying, “I never said it. If the house is mine, people that are very close to me, would they not know? I did not come out to say ‘come and congratulate me, I bought house.’”

Explaining her season for posting the video, Kiitan said: “The actual reason I posted that video was because I had pending jobs and I needed them to know this is what I am facing right now, If not I would go through that phase alone and nobody will know.”
