Sunday Igboho Sends Powerful Message To FG After Attempted Arrest
Sunday Igboho has sent powerful message to FG after some security agents attempted to arrest him earlier today along Lagos-Ibadan Expressway.
OnyxNews Nigeria gathered that Sunday Igboho, has warned the Federal Government to put its energy towards arresting Boko Haram leader, Ibrahim Shekau, and Islamic cleric, Sheikh Ahmad Gumi, who has been holding meetings with bandits.
Igboho said this during an interview with The PUNCH on Friday while reacting to the confrontation by the security agents around the Guru Maharaji bus stop along the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway.
The Yoruba activist, who has been in the news for serving a quit notice on Fulani herdsmen in some parts of the South-West, said he was never invited before they attempted to arrest him.
When asked if he would honour a police invitation, Igboho said, “Go and ask them to invite Gumi and Shekau first before disturbing me. Let them face the bandits instead.”
Igboho also said he would not run, adding that he had returned to his base in Ibadan.
When asked if he would go into hiding, he said, “What for? I am in the neighbourhood. I cannot run.”
Igboho told this Punch that his bank account was initially frozen but the ban was recently lifted.
He said he had done nothing wrong but fight for the rights of his people.

The Yoruba socio-political group, Afenifere, also condemned the attempt by security operatives to arrest Yoruba rights activist, Sunday Adeyemo popularly known as Sunday Igboho.
“There is no sense in that (the attempted arrest). Igboho is a free citizen of Nigeria. If they need him for any questioning, they should invite him not to go and waylay him on way like an armed robber,” Odumakin reacted to the incident.
