Yoruba nation agitator Sunday Adeyemo, popularly known as Sunday Igboho, will soon be released from detention by Benin Republic authorities.
This was made known on Saturday by Abuja-based human rights lawyer Pelumi Olajengbesi.
Recall that Sunday Igboho was in July 2021 arrested alongside his wife, Ropo, at an airport in Cotonou while trying to board a plane to Germany.
The secessionist agitator has been in detention after a Benin Republic Court frustrated Nigeria’s government plans to extradite him.
In a post on his Facebook page, Olajengbesi who has since resigned from the team of Nigerian lawyers for Igboho, revealed that the 49-year-old car dealer will be released soon.
He however advised Yoruba leaders to stop being selfish and allow good prevail.
Olajengbesi said: “Chief Sunday Igboho will be out very soon and there will be massive jubilation across the entire Yoruba land. He is no doubt a courageous MAN.
This is very authoritative just that our Yoruba leaders should stop being selfish and allow good to prevail.”
