Nigeria Latest News,Nigeria Headlines

The most widely read newspaper in Nigeria

Nigerians woke up to the news of the arrest of Sunday Adeyemo, a leading campaigner for Yoruba self-determination on Tuesday. This was three weeks after Adeyemo, more popularly known as Sunday Igboho was declared wanted by the Department of State Services.

News of Igboho’s arrest filtered in pretty much the same way the arrest of Indigenious People of Biafra’s leader, Nnamdi Kanu did. Like Igboho, Kanu was picked up on the soil of another African country, Kenya, while trying to leave the country on June 27. That put an end to his close to two years status as a fugitive and an opportunity for the regime to continue his prosecution for alleged treason and terrorism-related offences.

Despite its capacity though, government only spits this venom when it chooses.For years, low key bandits terrorised the North-West, without arrests until they became a terror now with the capacity to shoot down fighter jets. It is the same way the initial occasional incursions of marauding herdsmen started in the North-Central states of Benue and Plateau were ignored, even denied until they became a national dilemma traversing virtually every part of Nigeria.
