EKO HOT BLOG reports that PDP Presidential candidate Dele Momodu paid him a visit while he was incarcerated in Cotonou, Benin Republic, according to Sunday Igboho.

Momodu risked everything to visit him, according to the Yoruba Nation activist, who was recently released by the Benin Republic government on health reasons.

Igboho said: “I was very surprised that Chief Momodu could do this when many big people were even afraid to speak up for me.

“He prayed for me and told me to be calm and await God’s intervention.

“He said all he wants is peace and that he will reach out to every part of Nigeria.”

The exact date when the meeting took place was not disclosed.

Dele Momodu celebrated Igboho’s release on his official Instagram account after hearing the news.

Recall that Igboho and his wife, Ropo, were arrested on Monday, July 19, 2021, by the International Criminal Police Organisation at the Cadjèhoun Airport in Cotonou, the Republic of Benin, on their way to Germany. His wife was later released but Sunday remained in detention.

It was earlier reported that Dele Momodu uploaded on his verified Facebook page on Wednesday, where he stated that the lack of agreement between the Federal Government and Kanu had resulted in suffering in Igboland.

According to him, Nigerian leaders have a lot to learn from “The Madiba DR NELSON MANDELA” in seeking for peace.

He wrote, “Multiple sources have told me CHIEF SUNDAY IGBOHO ADEYEMO has told them of my nocturnal visit to him in Cotonou… For me, it was not a big deal.

“I remember how many Nigerians risked everything to support me when I was arrested and detained at ALAGBON LAGOS in 1993 over the June 12 crisis. I have just read the report of my visit on Opera News and am truly humbled
“Nigerian leaders have a lot to learn from The Madiba DR NELSON MANDELA in seeking for peace and reaching out to those who are not happy with the unnecessary division and the breakdown of law and order in many parts of our great country.
