An aide to Chief Sunday Adeyemo, also known as Sunday Igboho, has said that a woman in military uniform led the attackers to Igboho’s residence.
He said Igboho was at home when the assailants arrived; but, upon seeing them forcibly trying to open the gate to his residence, Igboho fled for dear life.
Eko Hot Blog reported earlier that at least two persons were killed after security operatives raided the home of the popular Yoruba activist in the early hours of Thursday, July 1, 2021.
Recounting the incident, the source who was visibly upset, said the activist was betrayed by some Yoruba people benefitting from the “massive corruption going on in Nigeria today.”
The source said the woman spoke loudly in Yoruba and commanded others to take along the cats in the compound having theorized that the activist may have turned into a cat.
“I heard the lady speaking Yoruba, saying they should pack all his cats. Meanwhile, those cats were bought the day Chief told us that rats had been disturbing the house.
“They took away the cats as if the man turned to a cat. They don’t know that God has a way of keeping those who are fighting for the masses. With this now, they have proved again that some Yoruba people are betrayers.

Sunday Igboho, whose agitation for the actualization of O’odua Republic has continued to gain momentum in recent months is said to have escaped by the whiskers after operatives of the Department of State Services (DSS) raided his home 72 hours to the planned Yoruba Nation rally in Lagos.
Following the raid, the DSS has now launched a full-scale manhunt for him over possession of illegal firearms and other assortments of munitions.
