Sunday Igboho regains freedom in Benin Republic, and YCE rejoices

Sunday Igboho’s release from prison in Benin Republic has YCE jumping with joy.

Yesterday, the Yoruba Council of Elders (YCE) expressed joy that the Yoruba nation agitator, Sunday Adeyemo, popularly known as Sunday Igboho, had been released from incarceration in Benin Republic.

Chief Oladipo Oyewole, Secretary-General of the YCE, called the development as encouraging and praised the Bola Tinubu-led administration for the news.

“So Sunday Igboho was freed by the Government of Benin Republic and he has gone to join his family in Germany,” Oyewole stated.

“YCE is pleased that the Federal Government of Nigeria, led by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, is a government that listens.” “May God bless Nigeria.”

In the video footage, Adeyemo, clothed in white and seated on a plastic chair, read from a prepared statement.

The activist hailed Yoruba sons and daughters all across the world for their support, singling out Banji Akintoye, a key player in the Yoruba nation campaign; Nobel Laureate Wole Soyinka; and former President Olusegun Obasanjo for their involvement in achieving his release.
