The Igboho warriors as seen in the below videos shared on the Twitter handle of the Oduduwa Republic alleged that the arrested men were sent as spies in an attempt to attack their leader, Sunday Igboho who is fighting for the Yoruba people.

Naija News understands that the development was coming two days after Sunday Igboho, called on the international community to help give Yoruba their own country.
He stated this while speaking at a conference in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital, on Wednesday in a video post by former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode, on Twitter.
Sunday Igboho urged Yorubas residing in the Nothern part of Nigeria to quickly return home, adding that any Yoruba king that denied backing the movement to liberate the South-west will not ‘see the light of the next day.’
