Yoruba Nation agitator, Chief Sunday Adeyemo, popularly known as Sunday Igboho has hinted about his return to Nigeria from Benin Republic to continue his agitation for actualization of Oodua Republic.

Igboho, who revealed that he has not abandoned the movement, stressed that the time for Yoruba nation has come.

The self-acclaimed freedom fighter fled Nigeria in July 2021 to Cotonou, Benin Republic, following an invasion on his residence by the Department of States Services, DSS.

However, the freedom fighter vowed to ensure the actualization of Yoruba nation.

Igboho gave the assurance, when he joined family and friends to celebrate the annual posthumous birthday of Bishop Ajayi Crowther in Ibadan, Oyo State.

Speaking via zoom platform, Igboho said: “I thank you all for your support since the inception of this just cause, and by God’s grace, the Fulani’s herdsmen activities against our people will end in our land. The Yoruba nation will soon be achieved and it will be better than all the nations in the world.

“My message to Yoruba people worldwide, who are passionate about the country of their own is not to lose hope. I am more than convinced that we are on our way to freedom. Our agitation is an idea whose time has come. I will come back to Yorubaland soon.”
