Yoruba Nation activist Sunday Adeyemo, also known as Sunday Igboho, has been freed after two years of legal battles in Benin.


In a statement titled "My Release in Benin Republic" and posted on his Instagram account, Igboho expressed his gratitude to God and to all Yoruba people around the world for their support. He also thanked former president Olusegun Obasanjo, nobel laureate Wole Soyinka, Professor Banji Akintoye, Ayo Adebanjo, and several traditional rulers for their roles in securing his release.


He said: "First of all, I sincerely appreciate God almighty, the master of the universe, for making this day possible. I want to say a big thank you to all Yoruba sons and daughters all over the world for their love and support before and after the loss of my dear mother, who is still kept at the morgue, waiting for me to come and give her the befitting burial that she deserves.


"I give special thanks to President Talon of Benin Republic and to all members of his cabinet. My gratitude goes to my heroic father, Professor Banji Akintoye, and Professor Wole Soyinka for their support during the struggle. May God reward you, Baba, for standing courageously for our Yoruba nation and me. You promised to stand by me through my ordeal in Benin Republic and you have fulfilled your promise.


"I will not forget to appreciate former President Olusegun Obasanjo, Baba Ayo Adebanjo for their roles, even though only God gives freedom. Let me use this opportunity to thank all religious leaders, pastors, Muslim clerics, and traditional worshippers for their prayers day and night.


"Our royal fathers, Obas, and Chiefs in Yoruba land, your love and support are so appreciated. But we need more of your support to deliver our lands from slavery because Yoruba land is ours.


"Although I have many Obas on my list, Olugbon of Orile Igbon and deputy chairman, Oyo State Council of Obas, Oba Francis Olushola Alao; Kabiesi Oba Topspin o ni Bariga of Bariga; Oba Tejuoso; Oni Kenta of Orile Kenta; Olugbo of Ugbo kingdom, Oba Fredrick Akinruntan Obateru; thanks immensely for your love.


"I must not forget to appreciate the Megarally USA under Prophet Ologunloluwa and the Directorate under the leadership of Barrister Ogedengbe. Special thanks to Ilana Omo Oodua, Canada and Igbega Omo Oodua USA and Canada."


Igboho was arrested on Monday, July 19, 2021 at the Cadjèhoun Airport in Cotonou, Republic of Benin by the International Criminal Police Organization (Interpol) while he was on his way to Germany.


His departure from Nigeria followed a raid on his Soka residence in Ibadan, the capital of Oyo State by the Department of State Services which accused him of stockpiling weapons.
