Yoruba nation agitator, Chief Sunday Adeyemo, popularly known as Sunday Igboho, has returned to Nigeria after spending over two years outside the country.
His spokesperson, Olayomi Koiki, disclosed Igboho’s return in a video posted on the X account of his media company,Koiki Media, on Wednesday.
Koiki’s caption read: “I can confirm that Chief Sunday Adeyemo aka Sunday Igboho is currently on his way to Igboho Town for the final burial of his mother MRS S.A. Adeyemo.
“The body of MRS S.A Adeyemo was picked up from the mortuary in Saki Town some few hours ago.”
Recall that Igboho was arrested by security operatives in the Benin Republic in 2021, about three weeks after the Department of State Services (DSS) declared him wanted for alleged terrorism and stockpiling arms, an allegation he has since denied.
He was arrested at the Cardinal Bernardin International Airport in Cotonou, Benin Republic, while attempting to flee to Germany.
However, in October 2023, Igboho revealed that he has been freed, adding that he can leave Cotonou for Nigeria and any other country.
