An Oyo State High Court sitting in Ibadan today extended an interim order restraining the Department of State Services, and the Attorney General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami (SAN), from arresting, killing, or harassing Yoruba nation agitator, Sunday Adeyemo, also referred to as Sunday Igboho.
Presided over by Justice Ladiran Akintola, the court also extended the order stopping the DSS and AGF from freezing the accounts of the embattled activist facing trial in Cotonou, Benin Republic.
Lead counsel for Igboho, Yomi Aliyu (SAN), confirmed the development after the ruling.
He said, “The judge said the interim order of injunction should continue until September 7 when we will go back to court.”
Inspiration FM had earlier reported that Justice Akintola had on August 4, 2021, directed Nigeria's secret police and the AGF not to arrest Igboho or freeze his bank accounts.
