Yoruba Nation Activist, Sunday Igboho has now regained freedom after spending two years in Benin republic.
According to the agitator, he was now legally free to leave Cotonou, capital of the Benin Republic, to Nigeria and other countries.
“I am now free to return to Nigeria and visit any country in the world. I have fulfilled all the legal conditions attached to my bail a few years back and I am coming home to Nigeria, my country of origin, any moment from now.
“I can confirm to you that I am now free to come back to Nigeria. There is no legal encumbrance again. Even though I have been living in Cotonou for some time, I can confirm to you categorically that I have now secured the liberty to leave Cotonou for Nigeria.
Leader of the Yoruba Nation, Banji Akintoye, on his part said Igboho is currently travelling to Germany to be with his family.
He stirred the hornet’s nest when he declared the Yoruba Nation’s sovereignty in March 2021.
Adeyemo started a campaign to chase killer herdsmen and kidnappers out of the South-West states and went on to call on Yoruba in Hausa/Fulani or Igbo territories to return home.
He, however, fled Nigeria in July 2021 following a invasion of his Ibadan residence by the operatives of the Department of State Services.
The attack led to at least one death, while some of his belongings were vandalised.
The DSS claimed that seven AK-47 rifles, pump-action guns, and 5,000 rounds of ammunition, charms and other weapons were recovered from his apartment during the invasion.
The judgment was later set aside by the Court of Appeal in August 2022.
He was later arrested at the Cardinal Bernardin International Airport in Cotonou, Benin Republic while attempting to flee to Germany.
Attempts by the former President Muhammadu Buhari-led Federal Government to repatriate him to Nigeria were unsuccessful.
