The Aare Ona Kankanfo of Yorubaland, Gani Adams, has revealed that he has rallied ten prominent monarchs of the Republic of Benin to support the Yoruba nation’s agitator, Sunday Igboho.
This was included in a statement by Adams’ special media assistant Kehinde Aderemi on Monday.
Adams also said he was uncomfortable with the way the federal government was handling Igboho’s case, adding that he would ensure the activist regained his unconditional release.
Igboho, who has been in police custody since his arrest at a Cotonou airport last week, is currently before a court in the Republic of Benin.
The court should rule on Ogboho’s extradition or otherwise.
The statement said, “I am not comfortable with the way the federal government is handling the Sunday Igboho case, and I have made my position known to the world. I also rallied more than ten prominent Yoruba monarchs from the Republic of Benin to discuss the possibility of getting Igboho off the hook and ensuring he regains his freedom unconditionally.
“In the future I think we have to support him because we are all in the fight for the liberation of our race and everything that happens in Igboho is happening to us. And the journey, however, did not start with him, it certainly will not end with him, for the agitation for self-determination is our legitimate rights for which we are ready to follow with all our might.
