Sunday Igboho Chickens Out Of Lagos Mega Rally, Goes Into Hiding by ICTNetworldNg(m): 8:05pm On Jul 01, 2021
The Yoruba activist Sunday Adeyemo (also known as Sunday Igboho) has withdrawn from the proposed Yoruba Nation mega rally scheduled for Saturday, July 3, 2021, at Ojota Lagos.

This is gathered from a source close to his camp that he had gone into hiding.

“He is no longer in Oyo State, I spoke with his people. Expectedly, they didn’t disclose his location.

“The federal government turned the heat on Igboho to stop the July 3 rally. This has been well established”, he said.

Recall that an attack on him in the early hours of Thursday left seven people dead, several wounded with an unknown number of persons missing alongside Igboho’s wife.

The leader and coordinator of all the groups agitating for Yoruba Nation ‘Ilana Omo Oodua’, Emeritus Professor Banji Akintoye, had accused the Muhammadu Buhari-led federal government of being responsible for the early dawn attack.

The vocal agitator has been leading processions to demand the break out of the South-West from Nigeria.

Yoruba Nation rallies have already been held in other states in the region. It is believed Igboho eventually backed down to avoid arrest.

His fears reportedly heightened after Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) was apprehended in Kenya.

Igboho told BBC Pidgin that two people died and several others were still missing after the raid in the Soka area.

“I dey my house around 1:30 AM. I just hear gunshot for front of my house and shout say, we be DSS, we be soja, Sunday Igboho come out

“Wetin I dey do na to fight for my pipo, my rally dey peaceful. I fight for my family (Yoruba) becos Fulani bandits kill, rape dem. Goment refuse to do di right tin, dat na why I come out”, he said.

His words come after a statement by the umbrella body of Yoruba self-determination groups, Ilana Omo Oodua, declared that the Yoruba Nation mega rally slated for Lagos will hold on Saturday as scheduled.

The statement was signed by its leader, Emeritus Professor Banji Akintoye, and made available to newsmen by his Communications Manager, Mr. Maxwell Adeleye.

“We want to confirm again that the Pro-Yoruba Nation mega rally scheduled to hold on Saturday, July 3rd, in Lagos will proceed as scheduled” the statement read in part.

See how the useless Fulani terrorist government is maltreating an innocent man. Just because he stood up for his people against the FG-sponsored killer herdsmen.
