Linda Ikeji's mansion was a political gift, controversial journalist claims

Controversial journalist, Kemi Olunloyo, is claiming that Linda Ikeji's Banana Island mansion is in fact a political gift.

A former journalist who seems to be back in action, Kemi Olunloyo, has claimed super blogger Linda Ikeji never bought the Banana Island mansion as earlier believed.

According to what she posted on her blog, she claims the mansion was "a blackmail gift from a high ranking politician".

According to Olunloyo, her close source received some very 'disturbing' information from Linda's sister. She added that this is the reason why no one knows exactly how much she bought the house, with Linda herself putting the value at N600 million and listings placing the value at N550 million.

Also, she added that the money Linda is alleged to have received from Dasuki is not part of the money used in purchasing the house.
