Agitators for the secession of Yorubaland have begun a protest against the detention of one of the arrowheads of the movement, Chief Sunday Adeyemo, popularly known as Sunday Igboho on Wednesday.
The move was first announced on Facebook in a statement signed by Igboho’s spokesman, Olayomi Koiki.
He said the protest was one of the conditions given for his release, urging his loyalists to converge on Igboho’s Soka Ibadan residence for the demonstration.
