The sources from the court added that Igboho now had to explain to the Benin Republic court why he entered the country without the necessary documents.
The Cour De’Appel De Cotonou, Benin Republic, on Monday, began the cross-examination of Yoruba Nation agitator, Sunday Adeyemo, more commonly called Sunday Igboho, over his entry into the West African country allegedly through the backdoor.
“The case is now about why he came to Benin Republic illegally and why he had not obtained the papers. This is now a Benin Republic versus Igboho matter and not Nigeria versus Igboho. SaharaReporters had earlier reported that the Nigerian government assembled at least six lawyers at the Cour De’Appel De Cotonou in its desperate bid to secure the extradition of Igboho.
“The court session took no less than 13 hours because of frequent breaks in-between. Also, the Beninese court system is different from the system of law in Nigeria.
