Several of the suspected O’odua Nation Agitators, arrested by the Oyo State Police Command over the invasion of the governor’s office and the Oyo State House of Assembly, have expressed no regrets for their actions.

Among them, Alabi Ogundeji, a 55-year-old lecturer, and Ademola Adeniyi, a 29-year-old phone repairer, asserted their belief in Yoruba autonomy and emphasized their commitment to the cause. He said: “I’m part of the agitation, and I can’t deny it: Yoruba as an indigenous nation is a nation on its own. We have so many nations in Nigeria, and Yoruba is one of them.

“Our leadership went to all Yoruba-speaking states to serve officials letters written by our leaders, and we were given our own copy, after that was the proclamation, after that, declaration, occupation, and notification to the world that Yoruba is an indigenous nation.
