The Communications Manager for Ilana Omo Oodua, Maxwell Adeleye, said Igboho was not under any immigration probe in Benin Republic.
Giving an update on Igboho’s case in a Cotonou court, he said: “We are pleased to inform all Yoruba people and well-wishers that the security operatives in Benin Republic have removed leg chain and handcuffs from Chief Igboho since Saturday evening.
“Chief Igboho’s wife has now been granted access to meet her husband three times daily.
“Medical personnel provided by our legal team have examined Chief Sunday Adeyemo. We reiterate that Chief Igboho is not under any immigration-related probe in Benin Republic.
“Chief Adeyemo will appear in court this morning (yesterday) in Benin Republic to face the likely extradition charges to be brought against him by the Nigerian government.
“We urge supporters from Nigeria not to bother coming to the court premises in Bénin. Kindly stay in Nigeria and support with prayers and whatever you can do, within the ambit of the law. We are confident that Chief Igboho shall be set free.”
