Why FG should leave Sunday Igboho alone – YCE

By Sola Ishola

 

THE Yoruba Council of Elders, YCE, yesterday, urged the Federal Government to drop all charges against Yoruba Nation agitator, Chief Sunday Adeyemo fondly called Sunday Igboho.

Addressing newsmen at the end of its Executive Council meeting held at the YCE Secretariat, Ibadan in Oyo State, the group also frowned at the state of infrastructure in the South-West accusing the Federal Government of marginalizing the region.

Speaking on Igboho’s detention in Benin Republic, YCE President, Justice Ademola Bakre (retd) said: “YCE has nothing against Igboho’s agitation for Yoruba Nation, it is his fundamental human right. If the federal feels Igboho has done anything wrong, he is supposed to be taken to court for trial, it is unjust to keep him in custody. 

“The Federal Government is wrong and it is improper to run this country this way. Igboho could have done anything wrong, but he ought to have been charged to court.
