Yoruba freedom fighter, Sunday Adeyemo, also known as Igboho, has appealed to the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, to prevail on the Federal Government to remove his name from its wanted list.
Igboho also urged the Ooni of Ife to prevail on the Federal government to lift the embargo and unfreeze all his bank accounts. In July 2021, the Department of State Services had declared Igboho wanted due to the stockpile of arms found in his house in Ibadan, Oyo State during a raid. During the raid, Igboho had escaped and left Nigeria to Cotonou in Benin Republic.
You are my father and you can’t do away with me. I know you have forgiven me going by this warm reception accorded us. “I am here to further seek your help as you have been doing before. I am still on the Federal Government wanted list, and I want you to help me clear my name from the wanted persons’ list. “Also, my account is frozen and I want you to assist me with that also. I want the embargo placed on my account to be lifted, and I know you are the one who can do it for me.
