BREAKING: Beninise Court Adjourns Igboho’s Hearing Till Friday

A Beninise court has adjourned Sunday Igboho’s hearing till tomorrow, Friday, July 23.

Glamtush reports that Yoruba Nation agitator, Sunday Adeyemo, popularly known as Sunday Igboho, has been returned to the custody of Brigade Criminelle in Cotonou, Benin Republic.

This online platform understands that this is as the Cour D’Appel De Cotonou adjourned the case involving the Yoruba rights activist till Friday, July 23, 2021.

Recall that Igboho and his wife, Ropo, were arrested at the Cardinal Bernardin International Airport, Cotonou while trying to catch a flight to Germany.

He is currently being tried for obtaining a Beninise passport without being a citizen.

After the hearing, the government lawyer didn’t address journalists.

Ìgbòho’s lawyer, however, explained that “this is not the best time to say anything on the case.”

He expressed optimism that things would turn out for good.

It was gathered that the court sitting was held amidst a tensed atmosphere as supporters of Sunday Igboho turned out in their large numbers to witness the hearing.

Many of the supporters, who did not know when the Yoruba rights activist arrived in court, rushed into the courtroom to see him.
