Igboho and his lawyer
Yoruba Nation activist, Sunday Igboho has met with members of this legal team in Cotonou, Benin Republic.
It was gathered that Igboho with leader of Ilana Omo Oodua Worldwide, Professor Banji Akintoye and a French Language Expert/Deputy leader of Ilana Omo Oodua Worldwide, Professor Wale Adeniran, met with the lawyers.
The meeting may be unconnected with on how Igboho can regain unconditional freedom.
Igboho, who fled to avoid arrest, secured conditional release from prison in neighbouring Benin eight months after being in prison.
Igboho had been detained in Benin’s commercial capital Cotonou on accusations of “criminal association.”
One of his lawyers, Yomi Alliyu, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria, had said Igboho’s release was under the agreement that he should not leave the medical centre or Cotonou for any reason until completion of his case. (The Nation)
