Interpol Arrested Sunday Igboho & His Wife Ropo In Benin Republic — Lawyer by Nemere2020(op): 2:43pm On Jul 20, 2021
The International Criminal Police Organisation arrested Yoruba Nation agitator, Sunday Adeyemo, with his wife, Ropo, in Cotonou, Benin Republic, the activist’s lead counsel, Yomi Alliyu (SAN), has said.

Alliyu revealed this in a statement obtained by The PUNCH on Tuesday.

According to him, the Federal Government of Nigeria through INTERPOL got Adeyemo aka Sunday Igboho and his wife, who is a German citizen, arrested on Monday night at an airport in Benin Republic, one of Nigeria’s neighbouring countries in the West African sub-region. Igboho was arrested while he tried to catch a flight to Germany with his wife.

The senior advocate described the arrest of his client as shocking and urged the government of Germany, Benin Republic and the international community “to rise up and curb the impunity of the Nigerian Government by refusing any application for extradition of our Client who already has application before the International Criminal Court duly acknowledged”.

The Nigerian secret police had raided Igboho’s Ibadan residence in the Soka area on July 1, 2021, arrested about 12 of his aides and killed two of them in a gun duel.

The Federal Government of Nigeria had placed the Nigeria Immigration Service and the Nigeria Customs Service on alert to stop Igboho from leaving the country.

It baffles me that some people have not come to terms with what Federal Government really mean.

Even as influential as Dangote with his money, foreign network and contacts/connections can't dare the Federal government.
El-zazaky with the most dreaded followers is still cooling off in confinement.

Kanu who boasted that he can play God with his 2m men is in the dungeon of the DSS without a single protest from his so call 2m men in Nigeria soil.
What about the great Tompolo of old, where is he?
After God fear Government!

I suspect that they apprehended him during the raid at his Ibadan resident, he was probably shot and badly injured. They didn’t deem him fit for parade that’s why they keep releasing different stories. Only God can help Nigerians, as it stands you can’t defend yourself let alone fight for your rights.

They will go as far as Cotonou to arrest someone who's a threat only to their dictatorship and not to Nigeria while those sponsoring banditry and insurgency are walking freely undecided

Agitation is the least problem Nigerians have. I understand PMB government is heavy handed in silencing opposition and separatist
My desire is to see the government focus on people’s safety and security

INTERPOL?

I thought interpol gets involved when someone commits international crime in more than one country.

Perhaps the world now appreciate the real picture of what many sane Nigerians have been shouting.See the lightening speed the hausa-fulanis are arresting whatever they think is a threat to their continual clinging to power.So sorry for anyone especially southerners who can decipher the real unfolding power play game.

Fear Government but it's not infallible.

Only united masses/the people can fight government and topple it. Individuals or their organization who fights government are bound to fall in the long run.


Only a united masses can fight government. The diverse tribal and religious differences in Nigeria are behind her under development.

Politicians will continue to exploit these lines more than hunger till we get sense.

All of us.
