Dele Momodu, a veteran journalist on Friday faulted the
reported harassment of Yoruba activist, Sunday Adeyemo popularly known as
Sunday Igboho.
Momodu, who is the Publisher of Ovation Magazine said the
government should stop terrorising Igboho.
Describing the attempt on Igboho as shameless, he wondered
why the government would attempt to arrest Igboho while looking away from
bandits.
Igboho was reportedly harassed by a combined team of the
police, Army and the Department of State Services, DSS.
Recall that Femi Fani-Kayode, a former Aviation Minister had
accused the DSS of attempting to arrest the Yoruba freedom fighter.
The PDP Chieftain had said DSS operatives and policemen
numbering about 40 made the attempt at the Ibadan/Lagos Expressway.
Some Nigerians had called for Igboho’s arrest over attacks
on herders in Oyo and Ogun State.
Igboho had some weeks ago stormed Ogun State to chase away
Fulani herdsmen in Yewa North, saying “this is Yoruba land.”
Reacting to the development, Momodu in a tweet wrote: “Why
this harassment of CHIEF SUNDAY IGBOHO by agents of a government that knows the
whereabouts of bandits who live inside remote forests and won’t go near them
but have the temerity and shamelessness to terrorize a man who lives in his own
beautiful home in Ibadan city!!!”

That's shameful of them. The government knows the abode of the bandits, book haram and the infuriate herders that are terrorizing lawful citizens. It's a shame on them
