Yoruba Nation agitator Sunday Igboho has reacted to reports that he opposed the planned nationwide #EndBadGovernanceInNigeria protest.
He denied the claim saying it is false propaganda.
His spokesperson, Olayomi Koiki while reacting said the news was aimed at undermining Igboho’s commitment to Yoruba self-determination.
Koiki clarified that Igboho remains focused on achieving Yoruba independence and referenced a letter sent to President Bola Tinubu on April 17, which called for negotiations on the Yoruba’s peaceful exit from Nigeria. This letter, also signed by Yoruba Self-Determination Movement (YSDM) leader Prof. AdeBanji Akintoye and Ola Ademola, set a two-month deadline for establishing a negotiation team, expiring on June 13, 2024.
Igboho reiterated his stance during a visit to Oba Benjamin Olanite, the Onimeko of Imeko, on July 25, where he thanked the monarch for his support during his detention in Benin Republic.
He emphasized that while he supports Nigerians’ right to protest economic issues, his efforts remain on achieving Yoruba independence.
Koiki urged the media to avoid spreading misinformation about Igboho’s stance and announced that another letter would be sent to President Tinubu and international bodies to further negotiations for Yoruba independence.
