Sunday Igboho will die if extradited to Nigeria: Lawyer

Yoruba Nation activist Sunday ‘Igboho’ Adeyemo is safer in Benin Republic and will be murdered if extradited to Nigeria, his lawyer Ibrahim Salami said on Saturday.

“He is safer in Benin. He is not at all safe in Nigeria. Sending him to Nigeria means certain death,” Mr Salami told international news media AFP.

Mr Igboho was arrested in July at Cadjèhoun Airport in Cotonou on his way to Germany with his wife.

While his wife was released, the Cour De’appal De Cotonou ordered that the separatist leader be remanded in prison custody in the French-speaking nation.

Mr Salami stressed that although there were fears that Mr Igboho would be extradited to Nigeria, the Muhammadu Buhari regime was yet to issue an extradition warrant for the activist.

“What we feared at the start was an extradition request but there is no such demand,” said the lawyer.

“The fact that he is being investigated for a violation that could have been committed on Beninese territory is a hurdle to an extradition request as this case will first have to be sorted out,” Mr Salami said.

He noted that the activist sustained injuries and was flying abroad for treatment when he was arrested.

His arrest came days after operatives of the State Security Services raided his residence in Soka, Ibadan, killed two people, arrested others and accused him of planning a “violent insurrection against Nigeria.”

The secret police had alleged that illegal arms, including seven AK-47 rifles and thousands of ammunition were recovered from his residence.

Meanwhile, his spokesperson Olayomi Koiki, in a statement last Tuesday appealed to the Benin Republic government to allow Mr Igboho seek medical treatment.

Mr Koiki said the activists’ lawyers confirmed that his health was in need of urgent attention.

He pleaded with “the Government of Benin Republic, President Patrice Talon to please allow Chief Sunday Adeyemo, aka Igboho to seek medical treatment due to his health.”

You see what illiteracy can cause.

So Igboho has spent how many months in Benin prison now?

When those months would have been added to the time he has spent in prison if he had been extradited and be looking forward to gain freedom before the year runs out.

See how gullible the leader of a secessionist group is

Met this Igboho guy once through my dad....this guy despite his wealth would spend the night in forests tracking fulani killers and help in securing people's farms. If you don't have have farms and crops worth millions of naira destroyed because of some idiot fulani and his cow it would be easy for you to sit in lagos and talk shit, if you didn't see the body of fatai aborode who came from Germany to invest in agriculture in ibadan, if you didn't see his body how fulani and their leader tied him down and butchered him it's easy to talk shit in your one room in ajegunle. Igboho may have his faults but he's a Yoruba hero that shouldn't be forgotten.

thebosstrevor1:


You are a liar. You have never met igboho nor anyone.

Igboho has been forgotten and will be forgotten forever.

The killer of fatai aborode is a yoruba man.

A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Pa Olawuwo has been remanded in police custody over the gruesome murder of Dr. Fatai Aborode in Igangan, Ibarapa North Local Government area of Oyo State.

If you're going to be an activist leader, you must be ready to do it in the battlefield. Not gaining a little recognition and then running abroad, while your followers take the beating. That's why I do not have any belief in people like Kanu and Igboho.
