The assumptions by many that Yoruba Nation activist, Sunday Adeyemo, popularly known as Sunday Igboho has been deserted by his kinsmen especially by the Governors from his region appears not to be correct after all.
This is because the Governor of Lagos State, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has publicly revealed that people are ” working behind the scenes” concerning the arrest and trial of Igboho.
The governor made this known while addressing the Press at the Polling Unit 019 Ward 08, Ikoyi II, where he cast his vote during the Local Government/Council Areas election on Saturday.
Sanwo-Olu made the disclosure after he was put on the spot about the presumed silence of South West governors on the arrest of Igboho.
In response, the governor explained that “people” are working behind the scenes, stating that the case doesn’t have to be a public conversation.
“These are very difficult times for all of us. I can assure you that people are working behind the scenes.
“At occasions like this, it’s not by how many Press people you call.
“I’m aware that a lot of people have responses that they are doing quietly and privately and it doesn’t have to be a public conversation.”
Recall that Igboho 48 was arrested on Monday, July 19, 2021, by the International Criminal Police Organisation at the Cadjèhoun Airport in Cotonou, Republic of Benin.
Igboho was arrested with his Germany-based wife, Ropo, at the airport while they reportedly tried to catch a flight to Germany around 8 pm on Monday.
