Yoruba Nation agitator, Sunday Adeyemo, popularly known as Sunday Igboho, said he was ready to return to Nigeria, and that he has accepted his destiny.
Igboho, in a leaked audio, said the he was no longer scared of returning to Nigeria, and that if the Benin Republic government wanted to return him to Nigeria, they should go ahead.
He said, \u201cIt is because of the situation I found myself in. If I am determined to get something done, nobody will resist me. When I insisted that the detention facility that I was kept here should be changed, they were forced to change it. I have accepted my destiny.
\u201cI am no longer scared of anyone. I am ready to face the judge. I am no longer scared of him. He should do whatever he likes.\u201d
Igboho, in the leaked audio, said, \u201cIf they want to return me to Nigeria, they should go ahead. There is God there.
\u201cNnamdi Kanu is also in Nigerian custody, and we are fighting a similar cause. I don\u2019t care if I am returned to Nigeria too. I am ready.\u201d
He lamented that he had been in Benin for almost two months, and that the lawyers did not show enough concern.
Igboho said he had senior lawyers in Nigeria who respected him, and that he had 42 lawyers defending him in Ibadan, and they kept getting victory.
The Yoruba nation activist was arrested in Benin Republic two months ago while he was fleeing to Germany to avoid arrest by the Nigerian government.
There have been mounting pressures that he should not be extradited to Nigeria as he would face stiffer punishment.
But it now appears that the situation in Benin is getting worse than in Nigeria.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
