The senior lawyer said this in a statement following jubilation around the world that Igboho had been released on Monday.
He said Professor Wale Adediran, a member of the Ilana Ono Oodua, was actively involved in the negotiation that led to Sunday Igboho’s release.
Igboho’s supporters had been in court as early as 7:30am, anticipating the arrival of the Yoruba youth leader, who has been in detention
Chief Aliyu said it would be “advisable” for the INTERPOL and authorities in Benin Republic to be aware of the “savagery acts” committed in Igboho’s residence on July1, 2021 when the operatives of the Directorate of State Service invaded the house between 1.00am and 3.00am, killing two people in the process and maliciously damaging his property.
This was actually the dramatization of the earlier threat of President Muhammadu Buhari that he would “speak to” a section of the country “in the language they understand”.
The group also called for the release of the 13 aides detained over the last week attack.
He said instead of lobbying traditional rulers peacefully and getting their buy-in, Igboho is focusing on propaganda.

In a statement signed by its Chairman of Council, Chief Tola Adeniyi, the Alliance said Sunday Igboho remains an undisputed hero of the Yoruba people today, and that his actions are in accordance with the self-determination clause in the United Nations Charter.
