Monthly allocations preventing South-West govs from openly supporting Yoruba nation — Igboho

The agitation for an independent Yoruba nation may have received the blessing and backing of all the governors and monarchs in the South-West but are only scared to openly associate with the agitators.
Yoruba freedom fighter, Sunday Adeyemo, popularly known as Sunday Igboho, disclosed this while speaking with other leaders at a Yoruba nation rally held on Saturday in Osogbo, the Osun State capital.
He said the governors are interested in breaking away but are scared that their monthly allocations could be denied should they declare open support for the idea.
Igboho said the Yoruba nation must leave now as it could no longer slave for the North.
He called for unity among Yoruba people and asked all aggrieved persons of Yoruba extraction to come together.
He said, “I can’t be cowed or intimidated. They said I would be arrested. Who would dare do that? We are no longer part of Nigeria. We won’t have anything to do with them again.
“There is no election again in Yorubaland until we have a Yoruba Nation. Those in authority initially thought we were joking when we demanded an independent Yoruba Nation.
“All our governors are with us. From Oyo, Ogun and Ondo to Ekiti, Lagos and Osun, they are supporting us, but they can’t do it openly. Allocation they give them in Abuja may stop if they do it openly. So, don’t abuse them again. Governor (Gboyega) Oyetola was informed I would be in Osun and he allowed us to come here. All our monarchs are with us.”
