Gani Adams gives Sunday Igboho 30 days to apologise
Gani Adams gives Sunday Igboho 30 days to apologise
Aare Onakakanfo of Yorubaland, Iba Gani Adams has asked the Yoruba Nation activist, Sunday Adeyemo popularly known as Sunday Igboho, to either apologise or face legal action for allegedly invading his privacy.
Adams made this demand in a pre-litigation letter written on his behalf by his counsel, Adesina Ogunlana.
In the letter dated June 4 2024 and addressed to Igboho, Adams detailed how the Yoruba activist allegedly infringed on his fundamental human right.
He alleged that Igboho intruded on his privacy by publishing in the media, a private conversation he had with a friend sometime in 2021.

Adams described Igboho’s action as a deliberate, reckless, and malicious breach of his fundamental rights to privacy as constitutionally guaranteed as cognisable in Section 37 of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999 as amended.
Adams, however, demanded a “letter of unqualified apology” from Igboho for the reckless and unlawful invasion of his privacy by the mass publication of his private discussion with Mr. Nurudeen Banjo which has scandalised his pre-eminent personality and status.
“Nonetheless, despite your affront to the honour and reputation of our Client, the great weight of his traditional title and office dictates first an embrace of rapprochement with you as a brother worthy and so, we have his instructions to request for an amicable settlement of his grievance in this matter with your good self.

200,000 repentant terrorists surrender, drop arms in North East – CDS
200,000 repentant terrorists surrender, drop arms in North East – CDS
The Chief of Defence Staff, General Christopher Musa, has disclosed that about 200,000 repentant terrorists have so far dropped their arms and surrendered to troops in the North East, noting that the twin strategy of kinetic and non-kinetic operations was responsible for this achievement.
The CDS made this known at the Security and Justice Symposium organised by the Office of the National Security Adviser (ONSA) in collaboration with the British High Commission, which began at the National Counterterrorism Centre in Abuja on Tuesday.
He disclosed that the theme of the symposium, ”Securing Peace, Ensuring Justice, Protection, Conduct, and Accountability,” speaks volumes about the deluge of security challenges the armed forces and security agencies are facing.
His words, “All the challenges we are facing today have to do with fairness, equity, justice, and accountability.
“There will not be peace without justice, equity, fairness, and accountability. In our operations, we are conducting both kinetic and non-kinetic strategies, which have to a large extent yielded significant successes, and we want to particularly thank the National Security Adviser for his great support in this regard.
“Nigeria is going through so many challenges, and we feel we’re able to address this, and everybody has a sense of belonging. A lot of the security challenges we are having, we are sure, will go down. I want to thank the National Security Advisor for all the support he’s given us, both the kinetic and the non-kinetic.
“We have said it; the kinetic aspect is just less than 30%. The non-kinetic has a lot to play. The non-kinetic, because when you have democracy, people must have the evidence of democracy. As long as it tells people to sleep well and be peaceful, and they are hungry, their children cannot eat, and all this creates more problems.
