Sunday Adeyemo, popularly known as Sunday Igboho, and Prof. Banji Akintoye have said they know nothing about the invasion of a key government facility in Ibadan, the Oyo state capital
Legit.ng reports that Yoruba Nation agitators laid siege on the Oyo state government secretariat on Saturday, April 13
The reason behind this onslaught is not immediately clear but the agitators hoisted flags of Yoruba nation
Ibadan, Oyo state – Sunday Adeyemo, the Yoruba Nation activist popularly known as Sunday Igboho, on Saturday, April 13, said he knows nothing about the invasion of the Oyo state government secretariat earlier in the day.
Speaking through Olayomi Koiki, his media aide during a Facebook Live monitored by Legit.ng, Igboho distanced himself from the infraction.
Igboho said:
“I know nothing about it and I don’t know those behind it. If we want to organise a rally or any Yoruba Nation activity, we usually make an announcement beforehand.
Any person that said he is agitating for Yoruba Nation and is going to attack government facilities, that person or group is on his own; I don’t know anything about it.”
Speaking in a similar vein, Professor Banji Akintoye, the former leader of Ilana Omo Oodua, alleged that another separatist leader, Abiola Onitiri, was behind the incident in Oyo state.
Akintoye said:
“I have spoken to Sunday Igboho. Some people sent them to make sure that they disrupt the Yoruba self-determination struggle.
“I was informed a few minutes ago that some people who said they are followers of Onitiri have come to take over the government of Yorubaland, and that they have arrived in Ibadan. We in this struggle don’t act in that manner.
We are agitating for Yoruba Nation in a peaceful and orderly manner.”
Since the time this guy was released from prison,we haven’t heard him fight or say anything about Yoruba nation.
