A reported appeal for forgiveness has drawn public attention to a decades-long family rift involving a man identified as Fatai Okoya and Nigerian billionaire industrialist Chief Razaq Akanni Okoya, founder of Eleganza Group.

In an open letter circulating online, Fatai appealed for an opportunity to rebuild his relationship with the businessman after more than four decades apart.

The writer, who identifies himself as Razaq Okoya’s first child, expressed regret over the years they had spent apart and urged his father to consider reconciliation.

‘Dad, I Am Truly Sorry’

In the emotional letter, Fatai said he was ready to put pride aside and make another attempt to restore their relationship.

He reportedly expressed sadness over the time they had lost and appealed to his father to forgive him and allow them to begin again.

Fatai also indicated that he had made previous attempts to reconnect, saying the prolonged separation had continued to weigh heavily on him.

His appeal centred on forgiveness, family unity and the hope of rebuilding a relationship that had remained broken for decades.

Why Have They Been Apart for So Long?

The precise circumstances behind the reported estrangement remain unclear. In the open letter, Fatai did not provide a detailed account of how the separation began or explain why earlier efforts to reconcile had not succeeded.

A separate report by Western Post quoted Fatai as saying that his choice of spouse contributed to the breakdown of the relationship. However, the circumstances have not been independently established.

The identity of the letter’s author and his claim to be Razaq Okoya’s first child have also not been independently verified by the reports reviewed.

For now, the public awaits any response from the prominent industrialist or his representatives.
