Don’t kill Sunday Igboho, Fani-Kayode warns Buhari , IG

Former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode, has warned the Federal Government not to arrest or kill popular Yoruba activist, Chief Sunday Adeyemo, also known as Sunday Igboho.

Fani-Kayode who gave the warning on his official Twitter handle @realFFK said such would be dangerous, reckless and counter-productive.

He said this following a report that the Inspector-General of Police, Adamu Mohammed, has ordered the new Commissioner of Police in Oyo State, Ngozi Onadeko, to arrest Igboho immediately and transfer him to Abuja.

The order was confirmed by the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu while speaking in an interview with BBC Hausa.

The order was issued shortly after Igboho, and his supporters stormed a community in Ibarapa North Local Government Area of Oyo State where he addressed a crowd following the expiration of the seven-day ultimatum he issued for Fulani herdsmen to vacate the state.

 




Reacting to the order for Igboho’s arrest, Fani-Kayode advised the Federal Government to tread carefully because the activist has the full support of the Yoruba.

He said, “It would be dangerous, reckless and counter-productive for Buhari to arrest or kill Sunday Igboho.

When the Northern youths demanded that Igbos should leave the north, no-one was arrested. Why should Sunday be arrested or killed for asking killer Fulani herdsmen to leave South-West?
