Tinubu’s Presidency Can’t Stop Struggle For Yoruba Nation – Igboho
Yoruba Nation advocate, Chief Sunday Adeyemo, popularly known as Sunday Igboho, has reiterated his movement’s dedication to the pursuit of an independent Yoruba nation, irrespective of the election of a Yoruba president.
In an interview with The PUNCH, Igboho clarified that his Ilana Omo Oodua group had initiated the agitation long before President Bola Tinubu, a Yoruba man, assumed office.
Igboho’s statement emphasizes the movement’s commitment to their cause, regardless of political developments, and underscores their longstanding advocacy for Yoruba self-determination.

“We haven’t dropped the agitation for the Yoruba nation despite the emergence of President Bola Tinubu. We have been on this agitation long even before Tinubu clinched the presidential ticket of his political party, the All Progressives Congress.
“Our agitation is not predicated on the election of a Yoruba man as the President of the country. Tinubu is a Yoruba man and his becoming the President can’t stop us from the struggle for the realisation of the Yoruba nation,” he said.
While less visible recently, Igboho said his group is still actively furthering the cause, adding that the United Nations receives periodic updates on progress being made.
“You may think that you haven’t heard from us or seen much of us recently, we are still on the project and the United Nations is aware of our activities. We have submitted correspondence and letters keeping the world body abreast of our progression in the struggle for Yoruba,” he noted.
He dismissed critics questioning his leadership or impact under the new Tinubu administration, asserting that the Yoruba self-determination struggle was initiated long before Tinubu’s assumption of office.
Igboho addressed accusations challenging his leadership and emphasized his ongoing commitment to the cause of Yoruba independence, reinforcing his role as a prominent figure in the movement.
“Nobody is exclusively vested with the power in this struggle. We have leaders like Prof. Akintoye, but my critics cannot determine the requirements for leading this peaceful, legitimate campaign,” he declared.
