Activist Sunday Adeyemo alias Sunday Igboho says he is
nothing like the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) Nnamdi Kanu.
He said their missions were not alike as the Yoruba people
only want justice from killer herdsmen and good governance.
“I am not Kanu and I am not like Kanu. Kanu is working on
his agenda; perhaps, he doesn’t carry his people along. This is about the
Yoruba people being killed, raped, extorted, oppressed and dehumanised in their
own land. What we want is justice, peace, harmony and good governance,” he told
PUNCH in an interview published on Sunday.
The activist discredited reports that some Yoruba people in
the diaspora had raised about N11million to support his cause.
“I don’t need such and there is nothing like that,” he said.
Sunday Igboho denied burning the property of the Seriki
Fulani of Igangan in Ibarapa LGA of Oyo State when he visited the area to
enforce a notice to quit.
He said: “Let me make myself clear to everyone on this
today. On getting to Eruwa, I reported myself to the police area command and
having explained our mission, the area commander chose to follow us. The A/C
and his team followed us. On getting to Igangan, we met the police and men of
Operation Burst. We went into the town and returned shortly after and reported
ourselves to the Operation Burst team at the entrance of the town.
“The question is: Would the area commander have watched us
go to Seriki’s house to set it on fire? Another question is: Could Operation
Burst team have allowed us to go freely if we had such a record? There was
nothing like that when we were in the town; so we didn’t do it. We learnt that
it was an angry mob that went to do that.”
