Speaking on the efforts to facilitate the release of Chief Sunday Adeyemo popularly known as Igboho, he said, “Tremendous efforts are ongoing to make sure Sunday Igboho is set free but I cannot dictate to the Benin Government when he will be released, but I can assure you that his fundamental human rights will not be trampled upon.”
