Focus on Gumi, Shekau Before Chasing me, Igboho Tells FG
Yoruba activist , Sunday Adeyemo, better known as Sunday Igboho, has advised the Federal Government to channel its energy towards arresting Boko Haram leader , Ibrahim Shekau , and Islamic cleric , Sheikh Ahmad Gumi, who has been holding meetings with bandits .
Igboho said this during an interview with The PUNCH on Friday while reacting to the face – off between him and security agents around the Guru Maharaji bus stop along the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway.
The Yoruba activist , who has been in the news for serving a quit notice on Fulani herdsmen in some parts of the South-West, said he was never invited before they attempted to arrest him.
When asked if he would honour a police invitation , Igboho said , “Go and ask them to invite Gumi and Shekau first before disturbing me. Let them face the bandits instead .”
Igboho also said he would not run , adding that he had returned to his base in Ibadan.
When asked if he would go into hiding , he said , “What for? I am in the neighbourhood . I cannot run . ”
Igboho told this newspaper that his bank account was initially frozen but the restriction was lifted recently .
