How Yoruba nation agitators forcefully reopen Idiroko border

Yoruba nation agitators have forcefully reopened Idiroke border Idiroko, Ipokia local government area of Ogun state.

According to The Punch newspaper, the agitators were repelled by operatives of the Nigeria Customs Service who were manning the border town between Nigeria and the Republic of Benin.

Recall that the federal government since 2019 had closed the border when it directed that all forms of importation be done through the seaports.

Meanwhile, a Yoruba organisation, Yoruba Appraisal Forum (YAF), has strongly rejected the secessionist agitation being championed by Igboho.

Sunday Igboho has been in the news recently following his call for the secession of the Yoruba nation from Nigeria.

However, the pan-Yoruba group, YAF, staged a protest on Thursday, May 6, in Ado Ekiti to condemn Igboho’s secession agenda, describing such a move as treasonable and unpatriotic.
