Sunday Igboho Dares FG, Says 2023 Elections Won’t Hold In Yorubaland

One of the most prominent agitators for Yoruba nation, Chief Sunday Adeyemo, popularly know as Sunday Igboho on Saturday said at a rally in Osogbo that the 2023 general election would not hold .

Igboho said this while addressing the rally of Yoruba self-determination agitators which was well attended

The agitators converged at the November 27 Bridge along Gbongan/Osogbo Road after large number of heavily armed security agents took over Oke-Fia, Old Garage, Nelson Mandela Freedom, Alekuwodo, Fagbewesa, Ola-Iya Intersections and Fakunle areas.

The agitators marched round the major streets of Osogbo spreading the message of secession and distributing handbills and other materials.

He said the next election would not hold while urging the people to desist from collecting inducement from politicians to participate in the polls.

Igboho said, “Nobody can cause me to be afraid and nobody can arrest me. We don’t need any government again. What we want is the Yoruba nation.

” What they have done is enough, we don’t want to have anything to do with Nigeria again. There shall be no election in Yorubaland in 2023.

“The Federal Government thought we are joking about leaving Nigeria, we are determined to achieve the Yoruba bation.

“We are blessed with crude oil, gold, precious stones and other mineral resources, unfortunately, the Fulanis are getting the money and using it for the north and impoverishing and enslaving the Yorubas. They even made a train from their region to Niger republic. We are no longer slaves.

“Yoruba must unite to end this impunity. We must be at peace with each other to end this suffering. The government are thieves, they are cheating us.

“They even lied against Osun State Governor, Adegboyega Oyetola, that he has directed us not to come to his state. Oyetola is a good perfect man. He gave us the security to protect us and prevent miscreants to infiltrate our rally. He did not direct them to arrest us.”

Also, he warned that there will be mass protests if the Oyo State Government and Federal Government refuse to release the members of Oodua Peoples Congress who arrested a Fulani warlord, Isikilu Wakili.

“The OPC members that were held in connection with the arrest of Isikilu Wakili must be released, else there will be a massive protest in the country. I give the Oyo State government and FG a week ultimatum to release the OPC members.”

One of the leaders, Dr Akin Adejuwon of the department of Cultural Studies, Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, sad that the Yoruba nation has an intimidating population that no other tribe can rival.
