Sunday Igboho resists attempt by police to arrest Tani Olohun in Oyo

 Yoruba Nation activist, Sunday Adeyemo, popularly known as
Sunday Igboho, on Tuesday resisted attempts by the police to arrest an advocate
of Isese, the indigenous Yoruba religion, Abdulazeez Adegbola, also known as
Tani Olohun.

 

Footages shared on Tani Olohun’s Facebook page showed a
confrontation between residents and the police officers who came to arrest him.

 

One of the videos showed an officer pinning Olohun to the
ground as residents gathered at the scene.

 

In the course of the attempted arrest, a resident alleged
that the vehicle used by the officers had no number plate.

 

Olohun’s family members contacted Igboho as the situation
reportedly escalated. Igboho thereafter arrived at the scene with some
supporters.

 

Igboho, in another video, was seen communicating with an
alleged senior official over the phone while being surrounded by residents and
supporters.

 

According to him, four officers were at the scene, warning
that the situation could lead to a confrontation.

 

The Yoruba Nation activist thereafter handed the phone to
one of the officers at the official’s request.

 

When contacted, the Oyo State Police Command spokesperson,
DSP Ayanlade Olayinka, confirmed the incident but declined to provide details.

 

“I don’t have a comment. A press release is coming soon,”
the police spokesman said.
