DSS Releases Eight Of Sunday Igboho’s Aides

Eight of Sunday Igboho’s aides have been released.

Glamtush reports that some of the aides of Yoruba Nation agitator, Sunday have been released.

After 61 gruelling days in the custody of the Department of State Services (DSS), eight of the 12 aides of Yoruba Nation agitator, Sunday Adeyemo aka Aunfay Igboho, have regained their freedom.

The DSS released the eight detainees on Monday, their lawyer, Pelumi Olajengbesi said.

The secret police, however, refused to release the remaining four detainees.

Those released appeared at a press conference on Monday afternoon with their lawyer. They are Abideen Shittu, Abdullateef Onaolapo, Ayobami Donald, Olakunle Oluwapelumi, Dikeola Ademola, Bamidele Sunday, Raji Kazeem, and Taiwo Tajudeen.

Those still in DSS custody are Tajudeen Irinloye, Uthman Adelabu, Amudat Babatunde, and Jamiu Oyetunji.

Speaking at a press conference after the release of eight of the 12 detainees in Abuja on Monday, Olajengbesi insisted that the remaining four of his clients must be freed because they had been granted bail by the court.

He also stated that the DSS must account for the two associates of Igboho killed during the bloody raid of July 1.
