"You (Paulo) and Chief Lawal will fight 10 rounds non-stop in the ring. Then the next day, it will be Iyabo Ojo and me in the ring. **NB:** - You can’t talk about your status or claimed fake riches. - The last time I checked, you and Iyabo Ojo are still tenants while Chief Lawal owns estates and mansions. - I challenge both of you to show your properties and achievements with proper documentation for verification."
