Embattled Yoruba Nation agitator, Sunday Adeyemo aka Sunday Igboho, has been reportedly diagnosed with possible kidney or lungs illness in the Benin Republic, one of his lawyers, Yomi Aliyu, has said.
Aliyu told BBC Yoruba about the agitator’s developing illness, stating that the rights activist developed the illness in the Benin Republic prison custody.
He added that the agitator who is critically ill, had been rushed to the hospital for treatment.
The lawyer raised the alarm that Igboho needed urgent medical attention.
He said, “Igboho was not diagnosed with this sickness before he was arrested in Cotonou. It was so critical that they had to rush him to the hospital.
“I can’t tell if he has been returned to the prison from the hospital but what I know is, he’s battling ill health and it seems his kidney and lungs are already being affected.
“Even though I cannot tell which part of his body the sickness has really affected, I know it has to do with his internal organs.”
When contacted, the spokesperson for Ilana Oodua, Maxwell Adeleye, said, “Expect our reaction soon. But the government should be warned that nothing must happen to Igboho.”
