In an update on Thursday night, the command in a statement by its Deputy Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Babaseyi B. Oluseyi said investigation revealed that the suspect is not a qualified engineer but merely a supplier of construction materials to construction companies.
According to the statement, Azubike made the confession to the police during interrogation.
The PPRO also revealed that further findings indicated that the planned unveiling of the “Obi of Lagos Palace” was fraudulently designed.
According to him, the planned event was merely a ploy to swindle unsuspecting personalities and other Nigerians of their hard-earned money.
The investigation further established that the principal suspect “acted alone, without the backing or recognition of any legitimate chieftaincy authority”.
“Members of the public are therefore enjoined to disregard his claims and other misleading publications on social media aimed at causing disaffection among the peace-loving people of Lagos.
“Meanwhile, investigation is ongoing, and all suspects involved will be arraigned in court upon conclusion of the investigation”.
The suspect was arrested following intelligence suggesting planned unveiling of N1.5 billion Palace of the purported Obi Palace in the state.
The event was scheduled to take place at the Apple Hall, Amuwo Odofin, Lagos on September 13, 2025.
