According to him, “The sitting will be held at 10am in the morning at the Benin Republic court.

“The court will determine the fate of the extradition and we’ll also have the opportunity to present our case especially on the personality of Igboho.

“We know the magnitude of what the Nigerian government is trying to do if they try to get hold of Igboho but they will fail, by God’s grace.”

“Their intention was to capture him (Igboho), but God fought for him”.

Recall that Igboho was arrested by the International Criminal Police Organisation in Cotonou, Benin Republic shortly after the Federal Government raised alarm that the activist was making moves to fly out of the country.

The Department of State Services had declared the Oduduwa Republic agitator wanted after raiding his house in Ibadan the Oyo State capital over alleged activities threatening the cooperate existence of the country.
