Some Yoruba monarchs have stormed the Cour D’appel De
Cotonou, Benin Republic, for the trial of Sunday Igboho, a Yourba separatist.
The monarchs, supporters, and Igboho’s wife, Ropo, are in
court, ahead of the arrival of the freedom fighter.
Igboho was arrested last week Monday at an airport in
Cotonou on his way to Germany.
The Yoruba freedom fighter had fled Nigeria after he was
declared wanted by the Department of State Services, DSS.
DSS had raided his house in Soka area of Ibadan, Oyo State,
though he escaped.
The secret police had arrested some of his associates and
recovered some weapons and charms.
The monarchs had yesterday met in Benin Republic over the
arrest and detention of Igboho.
They have resolved to write to the president of Benin
Republic, Patrice Talon, over the freedom fighter’s arrest.
The monarchs made the disclosure after a meeting at the
Ajohoun Palace in Adjohoun, Benin, on Sunday.
