Oduduwa Republic agitator and renowned political thug, Chief Sunday Adeyemo popularly known as Sunday Igboho has disassociated himself from a statement which has gone viral that angry Yoruba youths would invade the palace of the Alake of Egbaland, Oba Adedotun Gbadebo.
Recall that the Igboho’s spokesperson identified as Olayomi Koiki had in a viral video warned that Oduduwa agitators would soon attack the monarch in his palace and other traditional rulers who do not support their agitation.
But Dapo Salami who is the Senior Adviser on Media and Publicity to Igboho said the statement was made solely by Koiki.
The Alake of Egbaland, Oba Adedotun Gbadebo lastweek had warned that it was in the best interest of all Nigerians to remain one, regardless of the current challenges.
According to the retired Brigadier-General, Nigeria could not afford another civil war or absorb the huge number of Nigerians that could be displaced by any civil war.
Igboho’s Senior Adviser on Media and Publicity said: “Chief Sunday Igboho has nothing to do with this declaration by Koiki, though Koiki is Igboho’s spokesman but on this particular one, Chief is not in support.
“The Alake of Egbaland is a major leader in Yorubaland whom we honour and have so much reverence for. Igboho will never say he wants to go and invade his palace.
“Koiki came in from the United Kingdom so he does not understand some things. We are not for violence, we are not going to invade any Oba’s Palace. We respect them all, they are our fathers and we will never disrespect them.”
