Africa-Press<\/a> – Nigeria<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>The Department of State Services has confirmed that its operative killed an aide to activist, Sunday Adeniyi Adeyemo AKA Igboho\u2019s at his residence in Ibadan, Oyo State.<\/p>\n

Recall that in the early hours of Thursday, Igboho\u2019s residence located at Soka area of Ibadan was invaded by some gunmen suspected to be security agents.<\/p>\n

DSS, also confirmed that it arrested 11 men and a woman after the fierce battle.<\/p>\n

The Public Relations Officer of the DSS, Dr. Peter Afunanya on Thursday night said that the raid was based on intelligence that Igboho had stockpiled arms in the place.<\/p>\n

DSS confirms attack on Sunday Igboho\u2019s residence, says arms recovered<\/p>\n

\u201cOn approach to the residence, the team came under heavy gun attack by nine (9) men, suspected to be Igboho\u2019s guards. Six (6) of them were armed with AK-47 gun and three (3) others, with Pump-Action riffles.\u201d<\/p>\n

Afunanya disclosed that two of Igboho\u2019s aides were killed.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the course of the exchange, two (2) of Igboho\u2019s armed men were gunned down while the rest were subdued and arrested. Only one operative who was shot by the assailants on his right hand sustained injury. He has, however, received medical attention and is very stable.<\/p>\n

\u201cAfterwards, the team procedurally searched the house and subsequently recovered the following among others:<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is to inform Nigerians and the world that Sunday Igboho and his group, in the guise of campaign for self-determination, have become well-armed and determined to undermine public order. This, the arrests and seizures are, no doubt, a confirmation of a grand plan by IGBOHO and his cohorts to wage a violent insurrection against the Nigerian State.<\/p>\n

\u201cAlert foreign missions and licencing authorities within and outside Nigeria about this development and the possibility that IGBOHO could declare some of his personal permit and identity cards missing in order to seek their replacement.<\/p>\n

How Sunday Igboho\u2019s residence was allegedly invaded<\/p>\n

\u201cApprise stakeholders that the Five (5) AK-47 assault rifles recovered from the building are suspected to be those collected by IGBOHO\u2019s men from Nigerian Customs and Immigration personnel at Idi Iroko, Ogun State.\u201d<\/p>\n

He, therefore, urged Igboho to surrender himself to the nearest security agency, adding that those arrested will be charged to court.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe gun duel which lasted for an hour offered IGBOHO the chance to escape. Sunday ADEYEMO a.k.a Sunday IGBOHO is now on the run. IGBOHO may run as far as he can. He may hide as long as he wants. He might have attacked security operatives as his strength carried him. But this will be the end of his shenanigans. Soon, he will not have a hiding place. His strength will sure fail him. And the law will catch up with him. The law may be slow. But it will be steady.<\/p>\n

\u201cConsequently, ADEYEMO\/IGBOHO is advised to turn himself in to the nearest security agency. Those cheering and eulogising him may appeal to or advise him to do the needful. He should surrender himself to the appropriate authorities. He or anyone can never be above the law.<\/p>\n

\u201cMeanwhile, those arrested will be charged accordingly.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
