Watch Igboho’s message to Yoruba people before the Noble Laurette’s visit.
In a short clip posted on a Facebook page, Sunday Adeyemo, AKA Igboho Oosa, dismissed claims in some quarters that he is in prison, sick, hiding as false. He stated that he will soon be back in Nigeria to continue with the agitation for a better and fairer Nigeria; that what he is asking from Buhari’s government is his right and does not constitute any crime. Igboho further stated that the courts in Benin Republic and Nigeria have exonerated him, that, “the federal government of Nigeria owes him N20 billion which he promised will be paid to him”.

Nobel laureate, Prof. Wole Soyinka travelled to Cotonou, Benin Republic to visit Yoruba Nation agitator, Sunday Adeyemo, known as Sunday Igboho.
The literary icon was seen at the Seme border around noon on Sunday, crossing to Cotonou, the capital city of Benin Republic.
He was mobbed by a crowd while waiting to complete immigration formalities and he was repeatedly asked where he was headed.
His response was that he was on a visit to Sunday Igboho to break the Muslim fast with him.
Reminded that neither he nor Ighoho was a Muslim, Soyinka asserted that it made no difference.
He said he had wished to see Igboho, so as to sympathise with his predicament.
“Ramadan is as good as any other season to express non-denominational solidarity,” added the Professor.
Igboho was arrested in Cotonou on July 20, 2021, while trying to flee to Germany as the Nigerian government had declared him wanted.
He was arrested with his wife, Ropo, who was later released. Igboho spent eight months in prison before he was released by the Benin Republic government, but he is not allowed to leave the country.
Igboho had been at the forefront of agitation for the Yoruba Nation in Nigeria until his house was invaded by the Department of State Services (DSS) in Ibadan. He managed to flee while some of his aides were killed and others arrested.
