About three years after fleeing the country for Republic of Benin, Yoruba Nation separatist activist, Sunday Adeyemo, popularly known as Igboho, has returned to Nigeria.

The separatist leader was detained in Benin Republic in October 2021 while trying to fly to Germany.

A report in Channels Television, quoting a statement by Igboho’s spokesman, Olayomi Koiki, said Igboho returned to the country to attend his mother’s burial which is scheduled to take place in Igboho and Ibadan.

The report said that “in a video posted online, Mr Adeyemo was seen waving to residents of Igboho town as he entered the town for his mother’s final funeral rites.”

It would be recalled that Igboho’s mother died in 2023 while he was incarcerated in the Benin Republic.
