Family Cries Out as Ogun Police Arrest Man for Hoisting Yoruba Nation Flag, Delay Court Trial A family in distress has accused the Ogun State Police Command of unlawfully detaining Owolaju Adekunle John after his arrest for allegedly attempting to replace the Nigerian flag with a Yoruba Nation flag in Odeda. Arrested on January 9 alongside two others, Owolaju has remained in custody at Eleweran Police Station without being charged to court, despite repeated promises by police. The uncertainty has reportedly worsened his widowed mother’s health. While police confirmed the arrest, they gave no clear timeline for arraignment, deepening concerns over his continued detention. #YorubaNation #PoliceDetention #OgunNews

Sunday Igboho Apologises To Ooni Of Ife, Seeks Support To Clear Watchlist Status Yoruba Nation agitator, Sunday Adeyemo (Sunday Igboho), on Saturday formally apologised to the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi, during a reconciliation visit to the Ile Oodua Palace in Ile-Ife. Before prominent monarchs and chiefs, Igboho prostrated before the Ooni, admitting his past remarks against the monarch were wrong. He thanked the Ooni for privately intervening during his detention in Benin Republic and pleaded for support to clear his security watchlist status and unfreeze his accounts. Supporting the reconciliation, Yoruba monarchs praised Igboho’s humility and assured him of forgiveness. The Ooni, in response, embraced Igboho, describing him as a “brilliant and courageous son of Yorubaland” and urged unity among Yoruba people. The move marks a significant step in mending strained ties and could pave the way for broader dialogue on Yoruba self-determination. #SundayIgboho #OoniOfIfe #YorubaNation #NigeriaNews
