An ex-parte motion stopping the Department of State Security and Attorney General of the Federation from arresting, intimidating, harassing, and blocking the bank accounts of Yoruba Nation agitator, Chief Sunday Adeyemo aka Sunday Igboho has been granted.
Justice Akintola of Oyo State High Court gave the order following an ex-parte motion moved by Igboho’s lawyer Chief Yomi Aliu (SAN) at the court on Wednesday.
“The court has ordered that he must not be arrested, detained, killed in the next 14 days. The account also said that his account should not be blocked,” Yomi Aliu said after the case.
The Department of State Services (DSS) had on July 1 raided the residence of the activist in Ibadan, Oyo state.
Igboho had planned a ”Yoruba Nation Rally” in Lagos two days before the raid.
State Services had raided the residence around 2.00am, killing two people and arresting 12 aides but Igboho escaped.
DSS alleged that Igboho was stockpiling weapons, and subsequently declared him wanted.
The court adjourned the suit until August 18.
