Igboho
Benin Republic Government has released Yoruba Nation agitator, Sunday Adeyemo popularly known as Sunday Igboho
The 49-year-old agitator spent over 231 days in Benin Republic prison after he was arrested on July 19, 2021.
Many supporters had lamented the continuous detention of Igboho ‘without trial’.
The legal battle to either extradite Igboho to Nigeria or free him has witnessed a series of dramatic twists and turns.
A terse statement yesterday by the Umbrella body of Yoruba Self-determination Groups, Ilana Omo Oodua Worldwide, confirmed Igboho’s release.
The Communications Secretary to Ilana Omo Oodua Worldwide, Maxwell Adeleye, explained that Igboho was released to Professor Banji Akintoye and a French Language Expert/ Deputy Alana of Ilana Omo Oodua Worldwide, Professor Wale Adeniran.
Akintoye described the release of Ighoho as a “Triumph of truth over darkness in Yoruba land.”
