The Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami (SAN), says the Federal Government will bring back embattled Yoruba Nation agitator, Sunday Adeyemo aka Sunday Igboho, to Nigeria after his prosecution in Benin Republic.



The AGF spoke on Monday on Channels Television’s ‘Politics Today’ programme. It will be recalled that Igboho stays in the Benin Republic has been extended by six months.

Igboho flew from Nigeria after he was declared wanted by the Department of State Services for allegedly stockpiling arms to destabilise Nigeria, an allegation he denied, Igboho escaped to the neighbouring francophone country in July 2021.

The AGF said, “We’ll allow the law of a nation that was indeed breached takes its natural cause and then perhaps indeed thereafter bring him (Igboho) back home after the conclusion of the trial for the purpose of facing the Nigerian law that was accordingly breached.

“The position of things is that we are not interfering in aborting the existing prosecution in the foreign land.”
