The Cour D’Appel De Cotonou, Republic of Benin has remanded Yoruba Nation agitator, Sunday Adeyemo aka Sunday Igboho, at the Brigade Criminelle in Cotonou till Monday, July 26, for further hearing on the immigration-related offences brought against him by the government of the West African countries.

The trial judge however ordered the unconditional release of Igboho’s wife, Ropo, a German citizen, as well as her passport to be handed back to her.

Confirming the development, the Ilana Omo Oodua in a statement by the group’s Communications Manager, Maxwell Adeleye said, “The Lawyers handling the case reported after the proceedings that Chief Sunday Adeyemo lgboho cannot be extradited to Nigeria for two principal reasons:

“That contrary to insinuations, Nigeria and Benin have no Extradition Agreement.

“That Nigeria has not been able to come up with charges that could lead the court to order lgboho’s extradition to Nigeria.

“What Nigerian Government came up with were mere allegations against Ighoho such as trafficking in arms and inciting violence that could result in the social disturbance without evidence which the Government of Benin Republic considered spurious and untenable, and insufficient to warrant extradition.

“Lastly, the case has been adjourned till Monday 26th July to allow the Nigerian Government bring up whatever evidence they may have, and Mr. lgboho has been taken back to the police custody.”
