Igboho
Yoruba Nation activist, Sunday Adeyemo, popularly known as Igboho, has returned to Nigeria two years after his detention in the Benin Republic.
He returned to Nigeria for the burial of his mother, who died while he was detained.
Igboho left Nigeria in 2021 when he eloped to Benin Republic after he was declared wanted by the Department of State Services, DSS.
DSS had invaded his home in the Soka area of Oyo State over alleged terrorism charges.
While in Benin Republic, Igboho was arrested and remanded while attempting to travel to Germany.
He, however, regained his freedom recently after two years in a Beniese prison.
A statement by Igboho’s spokesman, Olayomi Koiki, confirmed that the Yoruba Nation activist was in the country for his mother’s burial.
Koiki disclosed this in a terse statement accompanied by a video via his X page on Thursday.
He wrote: “I can confirm that Chief Sunday Adeyemo, aka Sunday Igboho, is currently on his way to Igboho Town for the final burial of his mother MRS S.A. ADEYEMO.
“The body of MRS. S.A. ADEYEMO was picked up from the mortuary in Saki Town a few hours ago.”
