Yoruba Activist, Sunday Igboho Tells Nnamdi Kanu To 'Sheathe Sword,' Embrace Dialogue With Tinubu Government

The Yoruba nation activist, Sunday Adeyemo (Igboho), has appealed to the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, urging him to prioritise diplomatic negotiations with the administration of President Bola Tinubu.

The intervention, which signals a potential realignment of strategies among the country's most prominent separatist figures, was contained in a statement released on Friday and signed by his counsel, Pelumi Olajengbesi.

Igboho’s message to Kanu comes on the heels of the IPOB leader’s recent directive to cancel the controversial Monday sit-at-home order, a directive that had paralyzed economic activities across the five states of the South-East for nearly five years.

While applauding Kanu’s decision to end what he termed the "economic siege" on the region, Igboho went a step further, urging Kanu to translate that concession into a broader political strategy.

According to the statement, Igboho believes that with Kanu already making concessions, the next logical step is to formally engage the Federal Government.

"Chief Sunday Adeyemo wishes to commend the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, on his recent cancellation of the Monday sit-at-home across the South-East zone of Nigeria," the statement read.

"Chief Igboho believes that the move by Mazi Kanu to end the five-year Monday economic siege on the South-East zone is thoughtful."

However, the activist did not stop at commendation. In what appears to be a strategic pivot, Igboho explicitly called on Kanu to leverage this goodwill to secure his freedom through legal and political channels rather than resistance.

"Chief Igboho urges the IPOB leader to vigorously explore dialogue and mediation with the Federal Government to break the deadlock in his ordeal," the statement added.

The Yoruba nation leader expressed confidence in the disposition of the Tinubu-led administration, suggesting that the President might be more open to negotiation than previous regimes.

"While it is the fundamental right of Mazi Kanu to pursue self-determination, Chief Igboho believes that the current administration of President Bola Tinubu is predisposed to negotiation and mutual understanding for the peace, shared prosperity, security, and the deserved respect that the South-East commands," the statement noted.

In a pointed warning that will likely send ripples through the Southeast, Igboho also took aim at unknown gunmen and criminal elements who have hijacked the agitation for personal gain.

Igboho warned that the continued "desecration" of the region must stop immediately to pave the way for economic recovery.

"Chief Igboho also urges all those who make profits from the desecration and despoliation of the South-East through violence to desist from such acts in the interest of peace and economic prosperity of the region and the nation," he warned.

The intervention by Igboho is significant, marking the first major show of solidarity between the two leading ethnic nationalists since Kanu's dramatic rearrest and rendition to Nigeria in 2021.

Kanu is currently serving a life sentence at the Sokoto Correctional Centre after being convicted on terrorism-related charges on November 20, 2025—a verdict his family has vehemently rejected and pledged to appeal.

The call for dialogue from Igboho, who himself has faced the heat of state security forces and currently resides abroad, suggests a growing consensus that the window for armed confrontation may be closing, making way for a renewed push for negotiation as the primary tool for political emancipation.

jospepper:
Most of the mining is done illegally in connivance with few community individuals and government officials. To cover up, the Fulani bandits or any terrorists of their choice would enter the community and cause serious confusion, locals will evacuate ,an area which can be as large as a council ward would normally be deserted and become a no go area for the locals. The miners will step in and do their business for long without hindrance, while the Fulani would also be in such places grazing. This method has been replicated in many places that have mineral deposits in the North.
But that's the same thing USA is doing with M23 rebels in Eastern Congo

To my northern people, please shine your eyes and done be distracted. You see all those news about USA interfering in some of the happenings in Nigeria most especially in North, it's all about resource control.

There are some Northern saboteurs who are being used but yet to be consciously aware. You see all your natural resources, if you slag, you will only be getting token in percentage and it won't even be directly from the Nigeria government.

Are you in support of illegal mining in Nigeria? Since your useless government refused to do the right thing anybody can do it for them I don't care.
What the useless government are after is just OIL 🛢️ 🛢️ 🛢️ OIL 🛢️, where as God has blessed us with many natural resources which the chinkos and many useless government officers are benefiting from to the detriment of the citizens.

As far as it's not benefiting the ordinary Nigerian, biko US collect if you like take some percentage after the fight but also fight the useless government to invest the rest into Nigeria health sector.

We have been saying it and we will continue to say it, we are not expecting votes from South East.

Immediately after the 2023 election, we started pampering the regions we are expecting votes from and so far so good, almost their governors have defected to our camp.

Psoul:
Let me take it that you don't know what you're talking about.

Do you know what it means to allow terrorism to work uncountered in a country like Nigeria?
Do you know that uncountered terrorism in Nigeria can destroy the whole of Africa and be a fertile ground for them to operate from even into the West and all over the world.

Oga, when you see your neighbor's children playing with fire, you don't just stop them to save them from burn. You stop them cause you know that their house catch fire, yours may be affected.
The annoying thing in arguing with some of you is you only know half of the story you want to argue about.

Whatever USA want to accuse the Chinese of doing in Nigeria, they had done worse in Congo and still doing.

How are the USA companies getting cobalt which they use for phone battery 🔋?

How is Rwanda getting rich and developed without having natural resources in concentration?

Who is/are the people funding M23 rebels in Eastern part of Congo and how are they getting their arms and ammunition?

The same way USA monopolized the Congo mining sector illegally is the same plan they want to do in Nigeria by overtaking the Chinese

Do you know illegal mining is what is destabilising the north and fueling the bokoharam and isis issues. You government doesn't have the will power to stop it. So let them help
How about the illegal mining of Cobalt materials in Congo by the same USA? Without cobalt, there is nothing like phone battery. How are the USA companies getting the Cobalt when concentrated of it is in Congo

If USA can be making collaboration with Nigeria to be fighting terrorism, have they made same collaboration with Nigeria before talking about the operation of the Chinese in Nigeria?
