Refusal of UK visit visa from Nigeria

I applied for a visit visa, but was refused under 4.2 appendix V. I declared that I have other means of income in my personal letter, and also gave two statements of account. They ignored the one that has enough money and went for the other one that has a low balance. They wrote me that they are not satisfied that the funds in the account are genuinely available for exclusive use.

I want to know what to do if am reapplying.

These are the relevant sections from the refusal letters:

All information has to match

As the letter states, there is a mismatch between your claims and your account statements.

If you have declared that you earn 500,000 NGN a month as CEO of Royal Ekomex Resources Nigeria Limited and have no other income, and your account statements show 6 month deposits of 5,265,800 NGN, then obviously that demonstrates that your declaration is not fully truthful, because both of these things can't be true at once.

The key part here is not about looking at the account with sufficient money but about getting a trustworthy perspective on your finances - if it seems that parts of the declaration aren't fully truthful, then that's an automatic reason to not trust anything in the declaration and decline the application.
