Why I Turned Down IGP’s Invitation Letters – Sunday Igboho

Yoruba rights activist Sunday Adeyemo aka Sunday Igboho has
revealed he turned down two invitation letters by the
Inspector-General of Police, Mohammed Adamu.

In a statement by his media aide, Olayomi Koiki, Igboho said the
letters were sent on Thursday to him via a courier service and
another with about 15 police officers.

He said his security operatives refused to accept the letters
for security reasons.

The statement reads: “We would like to tell the international
communities and every Nigerian that this morning 1st of April,
2021, a letter was sent via DHL to Chief Sunday Igboho but the
letter was not received by his security operatives.

“Later around 3 pm of the same day, a team of about 6 men
without uniform arrived in a Corolla car and another 9 were in
police uniform but all were identified as police officers.

“They wanted to see Chief Sunday Igboho with a letter said to
have been addressed to him by the Inspector General of Police.
Again, the letter was not received by Chief Sunday’s security
team.

“Chief Sunday would like to know why a letter was sent to him
and for what purpose. If the IG of police wants to invite him, we
would like him to first send the same letter to all the bandits and
Boko Haram members killing our mother’s and farmers and those
kidnapping them.

“Since the IG of police wants to invite him, he should make a
public statement addressed to Chief Sunday Igboho.

“We should all remember how letters had been sent to previous
Yoruba sons like the late Dele Giwa.”
