Obasanjo Travels To Benin Republic, Meets President Over Sunday Igboho’s Trial | Sahara Reporters

Former President Olusegun Obasanjo travelled to Benin Republic in the first week of August in an attempt at mediating in the ongoing trial of Yoruba Nation activist, Sunday Adeyemo, otherwise known as Igboho.

According to TheCable, top sources in the diplomatic circles said the former president travelled to Zanzibar, an island in Tanzania on August 1 and rerouted to the Francophone country.He was said to have travelled to Benin Republic on the guise of condoling with Nicephore Soglo who recently lost his wife – Roseline Soglo. Roseline died on July 25 at the age of 87 in Cotonou.“Former President Obasanjo travelled to Zanzibar on August 1.

The Department of State Services had on July 1 raided the residence of the activist in Ibadan, Oyo state.The DSS raided the residence, killing two people and arresting 12 aides but Igboho escaped.

This means Sunday Igboho carried Yoruba leaders along in his struggle for a new country. It appears Nnamdi Kanu is a lone ranger that didn't carry Igbo leaders along.

Obasanjo! Obasanjo!! Obasanjo!!! How many times did I called him? Don't dare any camellón altitude in your Cotonú visit ooooooo.

They are playing their dirty game

Follow me I follow you back...I’m tasting something

Let wait and see the out come whether his meeting will solve problem or add more pepper to the problem

Those who thought that Obasanjo went to BeninRepublic to negotiate for release of Sunday Igboho need their brains examined. Those who call Obasanjo a 'statesman' are Naturally Evil but aren't opportuned yet to commit crimes like OBJ did. They've no right to condemn Abba Kyari

But Igbo Elites paid money to Arrest Nnamdi Kanu. Umu Anuofia

God bless you baba, help out

You re a true father kudos for you action, not the so called Igbo people who love money more than there life the so called find fathers of Igbo people are rubbish fathers

For this single action of yours, Baba Ebora Owu, you earn my respect for life. Youre true Yoruba stateman. God bless you.

Correct man

That’s a smart move.

Obasanjo, I hope CatrionaLaing1/UKinNigeria/10DowningStreet did not send you to Benin Republic to ensure that Sunday Igboho is detained as long as you wicked men like in order to ensure the British zoo continues running. FreeSundayIgboho FreeMaziNnamdiKanu SayNoToNigeria

Ebora Owu has stepped in....We hope for the best.

I'm not afraid of his presence there bcos he is not an Igbo man, Igbo man would go there to bring his own child and hand over to fulani govt, Igbos are FOOLs

The ebora himself! Shebi Buratai also met the president on behalf of NigeriaGov? OK na, the game is afoot!

Buhari won't like ds

Very good

And mr tinubu go hidde for London...baba i forgive u for the past .

Till tomorrow I don't regret being a citizen of Yoruba by birth, although I am from Enugu State... The Yorubas knows how 2 tackle issues as ONE... Kudos to Obasanjo for this, While Sunday Igboho awaits his freedom . The Benin border belongs to the Yorubas and not even FG 📌

He is simply doing what elders should do in times of a trouble like this, I believe he is going there to support him and make things better. Baba well done

Every leader to him people. If Buhari can defend Fulani herdsmen despite their atrocities so do Obasanjo. The SE must rally behind Nnamdi Kanu. They shld not follow the north to castigate Kanu cos the north won't castigate shekau and the many terrorists in their region.

For the 999th time I'm asking again, why is North so afraid of Nigeria break up ?

Good one

The only man I know that was a president of Nigeria others are counterfeit

Obasanjo is well respected in Africa than Buhari,Baba nah African godfather

Ndo Igbo this is what unity brotherhood is about. I hope Uzodinma and Uzor Kalu are watching. Look and learn.

Bravo, brave ex-president OBJ, the IGBOS ex-senator, ex-governors put together has no bolls to do what you have done. The new IGBO YOUTHS are taking bull the by the hone, not waiting for the powerless elders that has sold their conscience in detriments of children.

Interesting...

Why southeast elite and elders rejoice over MNK kidnapping. What a shame

I hope the evil aim of going will not be fulfilled because this man too av done alot of bad thing more than good and at this age I expect him to be seeking God for forgiveness .just let igboho be because if economy is okay such wouldn't av come up .

This old full has a president he never solved any problem...what makes you guys think he knows the solution to any now

Good move

Ohaneze Ndi Igbo Gives The Head Of Igbo Youths To Fulani For Slaughtering

These are the moves. I want them to do

Beninians are not as corrupt as Nigerians, Igboho must face Justice.

Bravo to Obasanjo shame on Igbo Elders

They say wherever you see Obasanjo know that money is involved he's going there for negotiation

I don't trust OBJ. He's an agent

No celebration yet🤷‍♂️ we don't know his reasons yet. If it's extraducting him back home for trial or releasing him to travel to Germany.

Haha Igboho is free from Nigeria government.

Obasanjo better be working for Buhari or he should expect a response from Lai Mohammed or the presidency (Garba Shehu or Femi Adesina)

I be yoruba born any igbo leaders and elders who don't stand for kanu may God almighty 🙏 put them in shame in public amen 🙏

Very nice, Ohanaeze ndi Igbo are useless . Don't come and insult me here am angry.

Evil people and evil men 💔💔💔

Evil man

If na Ohaneze ndi oshi, they will even meet the president to kill you. If time is not taken, yorubas will get Oduduwa republic before Biafra. Longer throat is killing many Igbo leaders and Biafrans too. Once they see money, they won't mind selling their mother

When it comes to fighting a common enemy I think the Yorubas are very very good at it. Next thing now you will hear that Igboho has been released. Then FG will realize what I said earlier that the boarder btw Nigeria and Benin Republic belong to the Yorubas.

Baba support Oodus nation jor.... Let us separate from these fulani holligachy

Thanks Baba. 👏 👏 👏

Lol... A typical elder statesman.

Nigerian Monarch, Ooni’s Committee To Meet Obasanjo, Soyinka, Others Over Yoruba Agitations | Sahara ReportersOsuntokun said the meeting with top Yoruba leaders is geared towards seeking solutions to the challenges facing the South-West and also to pursue the interests of the Yoruba race. The fulani caliphate is seriously preparing for war. And the fools from the south is still meeting. E go soon shock us. This is a good move by the Ooni of Ife and I'm glad that the likes of Oba of Lagos and Oluwo of Iwo are not part of the traditional rulers in the committee - my prayer is that the politicians in this committee should put our interest first and not that of nigeria!!! This time is crucial to our soul & existence as a race. We must take a bold & firm decisions in helping our race back on Track! The long term economic structure we had planned over 60 yrs had been eroded by this valueless people that take delight to revenge,kill,rape maiming.
