Yoruba Nation agitator, Chief Sunday Adeyemo, better known as Sunday Igboho, has asked the Federal High Court in Ibadan to compel the Attorney General of the Federation
and the Department of State Services to pay him N5bn in damages over the invasion of his house in the wee hours of July 1 by DSS operatives.
He is, in the suit, contending that the invasion of his house in the Soka area of Ibadan, during which DSS operatives gunned down two of his associates and arrested 12 others, was not only malicious but also amounted to a violation of his fundamental human rights. He said for two hours, the DSS operatives shot through the ceiling and roof of his house, thereby depriving him “the quiet enjoyment of his house for the period of the armed invasion of the said property.”
He wants the court to order the defendants to return his personal belongings, which they allegedly carted away during the operations.
