- Sunday Igboho reportedly arrested in Cotonou
Reacting, Reno in a post on his official Facebook page, said he is ready to publicly put his money to gather resources to defend the Oduduwa Republic agitator.
He urge Afenifere and Aare Ona Kakanfo Gani Adams, to ‘OPENLY’ start a fundraiser for Sunday Igboho’s legal defence since “Buhari very openly supports killer herdsmen”
His post: “I am ready to publicly put my money where my mouth is. I urge Afenifere and Aare Ona Kakanfo Gani Adams, to OPENLY start a fundraiser for Sunday Igboho’s legal defence. Buhari very openly supports killer herdsmen. We should not hide our support for Igboho’s freedom.
“Garba Shehu openly released a statement that Miyetti Allah deserves “respect”. Igboho also deserves respect, if not from the government, then from us, for defending Nigerians from killer herdsmen.”
“In fact, any Southwestern politician that remains silent while Buhari is persecuting Igboho must be marked and punished in 2023!”
He pointed that he stands with Igboho not for secession but for defending his people.
“The reported arrest of Sunday Igboho in Cotonou is unfortunate. He is a hero freedom fighter who defended us.
“We must now repay his good turn and also defend him and gather resources for his legal defence. Igboho deserves the same commitment from us that Buhari has shown and continues to show to killer herdsmen and bandits.
“Buhari has refused to categorise his kinsmen, who shot down a multimillion dollar Nigerian Airforce jet yesterday, as terrorists (they lied that the jet did not crash, but the pilot survived and blew open their lies).
“Yet, he has criminalised one of the few Nigerians brave enough to stand up to killer herdsmen. And that is why I stand with Igboho. Not for secession. But for defending his people”. Omokri added.
