Sunday Adeyemo, a youth leader better known as Sunday Igboho, has not been released from custody in Benin Republic.

Wale Adeniran, one of the conveners of Ilana Omo Oodua International, a Yoruba socio-cultural organisation, confirmed this on Tuesday evening.

Igboho was said to have been arrested by security operatives in Benin Republic on Monday, while on his way to Germany, and that there were plans to repatriate him to Nigeria.

But there were reports on Tuesday afternoon that he had been released from custody.

Adeniran, who spoke during a Zoom meeting with some other members of the Ilana Omo Oodua group on Tuesday, said efforts were ongoing to ensure the youth leader’s release.

Also speaking with TheCable on Tuesday evening, Jare Ajayi, national publicity secretary of Afenifere, a Yoruba socio-cultural group, said there is no confirmation that Igboho has been released from police custody in Benin Republic.

Unconfirmed reports had further indicated that the Benin Republic government was not cooperating with Nigeria on repatriation proceedings, and had released Igboho.

But Ajayi, in a conversation with TheCable, said Igboho is still in custody.

“There is no confirmation that Igboho has been released from custody,” he said.

Ajayi also said Afenifere is still studying the situation before it will make a statement on details of Igboho’s arrest.

“Security agencies appear to be more active in hunting those who are peacefully agitating for the rights and better deals for their people than they appear to be in dealing with bandits and terrorists who have deprived thousands of innocent Nigerians of their lives and properties,” the Afenifere spokesman said.

“If half of the energy deployed to apprehend Nnamdi Kanu and Sunday Igboho had been deployed to the menace of terrorists and bandits who kill, rape, rob and kidnap people, we would not have been in the unfortunate security mess that we are presently.

“It is hoped that government will direct more attention to addressing issues that gave birth to ethnic agitations. The earlier this is done, the better.”

His Lawyer Yomi Aliu Speaks

As soon as the BBC heard rumours circulating on the internet that Chief Sunday Igboho had been released in Cotonou, Benin Republic, the BBC contacted Sunday Igboho's lawyer.

Lawyer Yomi Aliu, representing Chief Sunday Igboho, told BBC Yoruba that the release report was far from the truth.

Lawyer Yomi Aliu said the Benin Republic government had not yet released Sunday Igboho.

Do you really expect them to give up information about his whereabouts so that Nigeria's sadistic and totally depraved government will try and abduct him and crate him back to the shithole?

People, don't be naive.

Lmfaooooooooooooo This one is still stewing in denial

The fact is that Sunday Igboho grew too confident and comfortable in his struggle. He ought to have applied siege mentality and sense of eternal vigilance.

Unlike Mazi Nnamdi Kanu who dropped his guard carelessly by 'sauntering' into Kenya of all places like a tourist, Sunday Igboho had no guard from day one. He attended rallies like a boss. It might have been a DSS strategy to entrap him. I mean, how do you pursue secession cause and criticize government of the day heavily without safe-keeping all your key travelling documents somewhere in Lagos or a border town? Why still live openly in your house like a monarch in Ibadan with retinue of aides instead of being 'nowhere and everywhere'? Why keep incriminating things that could be used against you where you live?

We keep learning.

Buhari will die mysterious death very soon oloriburuku aboki

How could Benin Republic, the second home to Yorubas in the World kidnap and hand over their own son Sunday Igboho to the Fulani caliphate in Aso Rock, Abuja? For what reason?

For daring to speak up and defend his people from marauding killer fulani Terrorists?

Basically, Sunday Igboho is still in the hands of his brothers, so let’s see if they will toast him to their seemingly fulani Lords to kill for Sallah Celebration.

matter wey no dey get end

Like Kenya, Benin Rep don buy market too .

Get ready to read only bad news from Benin Rep these days

This country don tire me

But las las every thing na turn by turn

When power comes to the south

We already know what's up

Sunday Igboho should have stuck to his effective work of uprooting Fulani terrorist herdsmen from every nook and crany of Yoruba land not purchased by them.

Anyone thinking he can fight for secession as an outsider, while a democracy exist with democratic representation of the people you claim to be fighting for, is plain delusional.

Every incumbent government has the responsibility of crushing such insurrection.

Only political representatives of the people can push for secession, outsiders can only lobby peacefully.

I wonder how people in this forum sleep at night after supporting the government that’s in charge of all the murder going on in the country

Where is that Buhari's ass licker that grill vulture meat for a living. Barbeque or what the hell the vacuous being is.

Ejonibart:
And this guy been dey claim say he get jazz oo

After chest beating severally, he bragged in another video that he hopes those that are doubting him should have an encounter with him and he would show them who he is.

Well, the mighty warrior was caught running

Pls don't mind the fool above me..

To the topic..
He will soon be released, I believe. This man is innocent... Like what exactly is his offence?

Most painful part of it is still seeing some cursed and foolish southerners(especially from Yoruba side) still supporting and cheering this demonic Fulani government killing their people. So disgusting.

“Security agencies appear to be more active in hunting those who are peacefully agitating for the rights and better deals for their people than they appear to be in dealing with bandits and terrorists who have deprived thousands of innocent Nigerians of their lives and properties,” the Afenifere spokesman said.
