Nigerian investor Adrian Ogunmuyiwa has denied claims that he resigned from the board of River Park Estate, the company he founded. In a statement released on Thursday, Ogunmuyiwa said a letter circulating on social media, which suggested his resignation, was forged. He alleged that the document was created by his Ghanaian counterpart, Kojo Mensah, as part of an attempt to steal the company. According to Ogunmuyiwa, the forged letter is one of several documents Mensah has used since 2024 in an effort to take control of the business.
Ogunmuyiwa emphasized that he never resigned and that the letter published by Sahara Reporters is fake. He pointed out that a status report from 2020 still listed him as a director, contradicting claims that he stepped down in 2017. He further explained that Ghanaian board members removed all Nigerian directors from Houses for Africa Nigeria Limited, leaving only themselves in control. Ogunmuyiwa described this as a criminal act that occurred in February 2024, citing police reports and a CAC status report, and questioned the logic of removing him as a director in 2024 if he had indeed resigned in 2017.
The River Park Estate crisis has been ongoing. Ogunmuyiwa maintains that he established Jonah Capital, not the Ghanaians. In an effort to resolve the dispute, Federal Capital Territory Minister Nyesom Wike inaugurated a committee in August 2025. Recently, Wike vowed to issue a fresh Certificate of Occupancy to residents of River Park Estate, a move aimed at addressing the ongoing disagreement. Ogunmuyiwa’s denial of resignation is the latest development in the saga, and the committee established by Minister Wike is expected to play a crucial role in finding a solution, with the new Certificate of Occupancy potentially representing a step toward resolving the estate’s disputes.
