…commits to peaceful co-existence

Yoruba Nation agitator Sunday Adeyemo also known as Sunday Igboho has returned to Nigeria after over 30 months away. His lawyer, Pelumi Olajengbesi, confirmed Igboho’s return to the country in a statement on Thursday.

The Yoruba Nation campaigner thanked Governor Dapo Abiodun of Ogun State for his exceptional effort in guaranteeing his return to the country.

Recall that Igboho left the country on July 1, 2021 when operatives of the Department of State Services stormed his Ibadan residence and killed two of his aides. He took refuge in Benin Republic, was detained but later released.
