Folorunsho Olayinka, known as Finest, said he only stood as guarantor for the late comedian Sanku in the Lexus RX 350 payment issue. He denied forcing Sanku into the deal. According to Punch Nigeria, Sanku bought the vehicle for ₦25,400,000 but paid just ₦7,000,000 upfront.
He said Sanku made further instalments raising the total paid to about ₦12,280,000 before his death. Finest shared a receipt from JJ Motors showing these payments. He also said he did not profit from the dispute and that he helped only because the dealer knew him.

He said the car was loaned to Sanku from JJ Motors Empire and Services Limited in Ilorin. He said he provided a driver at Sanku’s request. He also said he was not part of decisions about returning the car or what to do with outstanding debts.
Finest said the balance left was about ₦13,000,000 after partial payments. He said some people pressured Sanku to return the Lexus for a cheaper Toyota Venza, but Sanku resisted because of family advice.
Finest said he helped with hospital visits and treatment payments after Sanku’s accident. He expressed sorrow over the public assumptions linking him to wrongdoing. The dispute has sparked debate over celebrity finances, guarantorship, and accountability.
