Gani Adams hails Igboho at 49, urges his unconditional release from detention

Aare Ona Kakanfo of Yoruba land, Chief Gani Adams, has felicitated Chief Sunday Adeyemo popularly called Igboho, on his 49th birthday, urging the Benin Republic government to release unconditionally the Yoruba Nation agitator currently in detention in that country.

Adams made the call on Sunday in a statement by his Special Assistant on Media, Mr. Kehinde Aderemi, even as he said that it was a sign of maturity for Igboho to have reached that age, adding that the best way to appreciate God in the life of the Yoruba Nation agitator was to continue to live for humanity.

The Yoruba generalissimo, while calling on the Nigerian and the Benin Republic governments to release from detention the activist, who is currently standing trial in the Benin Republic, declared that the struggle for the liberation of the Yoruba race was one that could not die, giving the present situation in the country.

According to him, there is no doubt that the struggle for the liberation of the Yoruba race is still ongoing and Yoruba nation agitators both home or abroad will never relent in seeking justice and total freedom from the bondage of bad leadership.

“Whether Sunday Igboho is with us now or in the Republic of Benin, I think we owe him a duty to celebrate him on the special occasion of his 49th birthday anniversary.

“The struggle for the liberation of our race is one struggle that cannot die, and no matter the threats or injustice meted out to each and every one of us, we remain unshaken that the struggle for a just society where life is meaningful is a dream that can only become a reality in a Yoruba land,” he said.

Adams, therefore, urged all the six governors in the South-West to call on the Federal Government to release Igboho unconditionally, saying that was the only thing they can do to justify their positions and strengths as true ambassadors of the region.

This was just as the Yoruba generalissimo expressed the belief that soon justice would triumph and Igboho would regain his freedom, recalling that he too once celebrated one of his birthdays in detention, where he felt the urge never to look back but look up to God that he would be set free from the bondage of injustice.

“So, I am using this opportunity to urge all the six governors in the southwest to press on the Federal Government to release Igboho unconditionally. That is the only thing they can do to justify their positions and strengths as true ambassadors of the region.

“I once celebrated one of my birthdays in detention and in those trying moments, I felt the urge never to look back but look up to God and that actually raised my spirit that whether now or later justice will triumph. I will be set free from the bondage of injustice.

“And it all came to pass. Unfortunately, this same experience is playing out in the case of Igboho as he turns 49 today, but I am sure that he will surely be set free because the activist is not fighting a wrong cause but a cause for the liberation of our race,” Adams stated.
