BREAKING: DSS, Police move to arrest Sunday Igboho (See Video)

The Department  of State Services and the Nigerian police have reportedly attempted to forcefully arrest  Sunday Adeyemo also known as Sunday Igboho.

The security operatives numbering about 40 were said to have made the attempt on the Lagos/Ibadan Expressway while Igboho was on his way to Lagos.

Ex-Aviation Minister, Femi  Fani-Kayode tweeted this on Friday.

He said: “I just spoke to my brother Sunday Igboho. He told me there was a violent attempt to arrest him this afternoon by a joint team of soldiers, DSS operatives & policemen numbering about 40 on the Ibadan/Lagos Expressway whilst he was on his way to see Baba Ayo Adebanjo in Lagos.

“I condemn this attempt to ambush& abduct him. It is not only reckless but also very dangerous. If the security agencies want to see him all they need to do is to invite him to their office. I am not aware of any crime that he has committed & I urge restraint on all sides.

“Let me also send a warning to the FG that Sunday Igboho is a hero to millions of Yorubas & either killing him or detaining him unlawfully would be the biggest mistake they could make. Building bridges, dialogue& peace is better than violence & war. A word is enough for the wise.”

However, franktalknow observes that the  inscription on the security vehicle in the viral video reads “ Operation Burst,” a security outfit of Oyo State,  suggesting  that the security officials might be from Oyo State and not the Federal Government.
