Sunday Igboho

By Adeola Badru

The Oyo State Police Command has dismissed claims that Yoruba Nation activist, Chief Sunday Adeyemo, popularly known as Sunday Igboho, played any role in the release of kidnapped victims in Igboho, Oorelope Local Government Area of Oyo State, despite widespread reports that the captives regained freedom shortly after he issued a two-hour ultimatum to suspected kidnappers.

The police, reacting to viral videos and social media reports, said there was no official confirmation that the victims had been rescued and insisted there was no evidence linking Igboho to any rescue operation.
