Yoruba freedom fighter, Sunday Adeyemo, popularly known as Sunday Igboho, has said that he is going to open up the borders in the South-West to allow foodstuffs, particularly rice.
He stated this in a viral video making the rounds on social media.
Igboho said; “After this discussion, we will hold a meeting and open our borders so that rice, food and other things can enter easily. Enough is enough. All our borders that the Nigerian government closed, we are telling them we are no longer under them, we will go and open the borders.
We are ready for everything they want to do to us. I am speaking on behalf of Yoruba people.”
Nigeria shares lengthy borders with Benin Republic across its southwestern parts.
Economic activities around the border have however been crippled since the closure of all land borders, although the Buhari regime had few months ago, ordered that 3 borders be reopened.
Mr. Igboho’s new comments follow others he has made in the past such as there being no basis for one Nigeria as insecurity continues to spread to Yoruba land.
In the video, he encourages Yoruba people living in other parts of the country to return to the southwest.
