Yoruba Nation activist, Sunday Adeyemo, aka Sunday Igboho, has dragged the Aare Onakakanfo of Yorubaland, Iba Gani Adams, to court over alleged defamation of character.
Igboho dragged Adams before an Oyo High Court sitting in Ibadan, through his team of lawyers led by J. A.Sanusi.
The separatist leader prayed that the court should award a compensation of N500 million against Adams for alleged defamatory statements against him.
Igboho said Adams accused him of being a serial killer and assassin for top politicians, including President Bola Tinubu, in an audio conversation in 2021.
Among others, Igboho prayed for an order of the court “for the payment of exemplary and aggravated damages in the sum of Five Hundred Million Naira (N500,000,000.00) in favour of the Claimant for defamation of the person of the Claimant by the Defendant. Cost of litigation put at the sum of Ten Million Naira (N10,000,000.00)”.
