The embattled Yoruba secessionist leader, Sunday Adeyemi who is popularly known as Igboho, has refuted and debunked the claims that he abandoned the agitation for Yoruba nation.
Igboho had reiterated that there is no going back on the issue of seceding and the actualisation of the Yoruba nation.

In his latest video, the agitator urged Yoruba monarchs to mobilize and support the agitation for Oduduwa Republic.
According to Igboho: “I, Sunday Adeyemo and all those who are following me on the issue of Yoruba Nation, there is no going back for us. There are talks around that we have stopped clamouring for Yoruba nation, that is not true, it is an unconfirmed rumour. We want Yoruba Nation, we want to be free from slavery because what God has given us on our land is enough to feed us.
“I want you, the Yoruba monarchs, to call a meeting, come together, you can see how our people are being killed everywhere, this is not good. Please come together and support us, may you live long. Yoruba Nation, no going back.”
Igboho was arrested and detained in Cotonou, Benin Republic in July 2021. The agitator was arrested while attempting to travel to Germany via Cotonou.
This was after he fled Nigeria, having been declared wanted by the Department of State Services, DSS, for allegedly stockpiling arms in his Ibadan residence.
Igboho had also celebrated the birthday of the Olugbon of Orile Igbon, Ogbomosho, in Oyo State, Oba Francis Alao.
Speaking in the video, Igboho urged the Olugbon to discuss with other traditional leaders in the South-West to stop conferring traditional titles on unqualified persons.
“I want to use this opportunity to advise you, sir, though I’m not worthy of advising you. I want to use this opportunity to explain that I wouldn’t want you to toe the path of other monarchs who are giving Yorubaland chieftaincy titles to unqualified persons.
“Our people are being killed across the country while they are giving chieftaincy titles to unqualified persons and it is not supposed to be so. Unqualified persons are been crowned with traditional titles.
“Kabiyesi, you will live longer. Please advise these kings that what they have done is not good because when Yoruba people get angry, things will be difficult. Please, use the occasion of your birthday to tell those traditional rulers to stop, it is very bad.”
