Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Yoruba Nation agitator, Sunday Igboho, has assured his followers of his freedom.<\/p>\n

Speaking with the leader of the Ilana Omo Oodua, Prof Banji Akintoye and his Deputy, Prof Wale Adeniran, Igboho said he would soon return home.<\/p>\n

The freedom fighter said he would return home and ensure that the Nigerian Government pays him N20 billion as compensation.<\/p>\n

Dismissing insinuations that he was sick, Igboho stressed that he was hale and hearty.<\/p>\n

He also hinted on continuing the struggle for the Yoruba Nation.<\/p>\n

Igboho lamented the spate of killings, kidnappings, and insecurity across the Southwest.<\/p>\n

According to Igboho: \u201cYoruba struggle will remain, and it will be stronger. Yorubas are suffering and smiling. They are killing, kidnapping and doing all sorts in Yorubaland and we are not talking.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m coming back home soon. I\u2019m a true son of the soil. One cannot be scared of his father\u2019s home. Nothing will happen and no one will be scared of anyone.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll that I\u2019ve asked the Federal Government they are yet to answer, and the court has ruled in my favour. Asides from the judgement in Benin Republic, I\u2019m coming to follow up with my judgement in Nigeria. Federal Government must pay my money. It is 20bn.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I get back to my base in Ibadan, I will thank everyone specially again. You will see me well. Dear Yorubas, don\u2019t be scared, Igboho is back.\u201d<\/p>\n

Igboho was locked up in Benin Republic following his arrest last year.<\/p>\n

He was arrested at a Cotonou airport while travelling to Germany.<\/p>\n

The Yoruba Nation agitator had eloped from Nigeria after he was declared wanted by the Department of State Services, DSS.<\/p>\n
