Yoruba Nation activist, Chief Sunday Adeyemo, also known as Sunday Igboho has been released from protective custody in Benin after two years of trial.

According to reports, Igboho has returned to Germany to reunite with his family.

He was arrested in July 2021 at the Cadjèhoun Airport in Cotonou while attempting to travel to Germany.

His arrest followed a raid on his residence in Ibadan, Nigeria, where he was accused of stockpiling arms.

He said:

“I am now free to return to Nigeria and visit any country in the world. I have fulfilled all the legal conditions attached to my bail few years back and I am coming home to Nigeria, my country of origin, any moment from now.

“I can confirm to you that I am now free to come back to Nigeria. There is no legal encumbrance again. Even though I have been living in Cotonou for some time, I can confirm to you categorically that I have now secured the liberty to leave Cotonou for Nigeria.”

He added that during his time in Cotonou, he received grave support and solidarity from various Yoruba indigenes, politicians, the media, academia, and Yoruba monarchs.

Notably, he commended the President of Benin Republic, Patrice Talon, for his assistance.

Furthermore, Igboho thanked former President Olusegun Obasanjo, Professor Wole Soyinka, Professor Banji Akintoye, Pa Ayo Adebanjo, Chief Dele Momodu, Yorubas in diaspora, and Yoruba traditional rulers for their unwavering support in the struggle for Yoruba self-determination.
