Yoruba activist, Sunday Igboho, has escaped a midnight attack by many armed men who were said to have killed two people in his Ibadan home.
His spokesperson Olayomi Koiki said the attackers were soldiers and that they stormed the place around 1am.
He said in a Facebook post:
“The situation now is very bad. Two Yoruba sons have been killed in the house of Chief Sunday Igboho. The two dead bodies have been taken away by the military. We do not know of the location where they were taken to,” the aide said in a Facebook Live.
“I can confirm that those who came are definitely Nigerian soldiers. There are more than 100 soldiers that came,” Koiki said.
“The situation is very active as more security operatives in about seven Nigerian Army patrol vans have arrived.”
However, the spokesman said, “He (Sunday Igboho) is currently safe.”
